HATE free speech. Actually, they are an enemy to all forms of freedom and moral agency. THAT is what Leftism is! They are all about force and coercion, though of course it is all tied up in the happy talk of fairies and unicorns. They have to fool the rubes, after all…
So of course free speech on Twitter is an existential threat to them!
The totalitarian Left — but I repeat myself — doesn’t like “free speech” unless they’re in charge of defining it through their hand-chosen “fact-checkers.”
now? I guess you really cannot trust the FBI anymore. It’s a shame…
The feds thought they had a slam-dunk case. It wasn’t. No convictions after all that theater. Everyone saw it was an entrapment game.
The real point is not the Democrats’ unpopularity at the moment, it is the structural challenge they face in the Senate:
It is that Leftism as a whole is an unambiguous failure. It is logically and practically bankrupt.
And we shouldn’t be surprised that a system based on force and lack of moral agency is a dog that don’t hunt! We’ve had plenty of historical examples that show that.
for Leftists:
See, Leftists almost always can’t handle rational argument or disagreement. It has become part of the Lefty “Rules” to never leave the Lefty “Circle of Safety” and intellectually engage. Part of it is the intellectual weakness of their arguments. But a good deal of it is the overweening narcissism of most Leftists.
And this problem started with the bastardization of the self-esteem movement. Though THAT is an argument for another day…
It’s all feelings, and no facts. And since it’s hard to argue against feelings, Leftists never really have to defend or justify their ideas. YOU are just a jerk to try and argue with them! And what they do is therefore most often oblivious to facts and rationality.
So, for several important reasons Leftists don’t dare put their theories and beliefs on the line. There’s no more “Crossfire” for a reason! It’s much easier for them to pretend that they are persecuted and run off to some friendly, fetid Lefty fever swamp rather than engage in rational argument!
And therefore it is damning. ALL progress is stopped, which IS the definition of “damnation.” We can call it “Epistemological Closure” if we want to get all fancy-dancy, but it is more common to use the word, “damnation.” We think we know the answers so we are simply not willing to consider alternative explanations. THAT is Epistemological Closure.
And it’s both rigid and fragile. ANY contrary information threatens to bring down the whole house of cards! Because if I was wrong on THIS after being so cocksure of it, what else might I be wrong about?
are notoriously thin-skinned! Typically, they can’t tolerate anyone who disagrees with them in any way. And they just can’t abide a joke at their expense!
Typically, they are too intellectually weak and just can’t stand the rough-and-tumble of the marketplace of ideas, and instead retreat to the warm, moist embrace of Lefty fever swamps. We’ve even seen that here!
yes that’s true…
