@HLGEM can you not see how saying that this one specific group hasn’t enough of value to bother hearing their speech is the problem.

It is EXACTLY WHY we wrote a constitution (before internet, go figure) telling everyone in no uncertain terms that we think it is better if everyone can speak, and if you don’t think so you’re gonna have a hard time. I don’t agree with 99% of the shit I hear everyday, but I’m not trying to pull the emergency brake all the fucking time, either.

And, btw, allowing the maw of western capitalism to spew out some other new "top dog" (pick your race/gender/zipcode here) isn’t winning, and it isn’t equality, and it isn’t reparations.

What it is, is the same f8ck face middlemen (persons!) making a buck of giving you those warm feelings in the belly by telling you the most conveniently compelling lies about your moral superiority, which is a result of your identity of course. See, they say, your right because of who you are!

All the murder and homelessness and great AirBnB’s, all the gender hate and race hate and hate hate, half price if you sign up for the whole year, ALL OF THAT is not as important as ensuring, through prudent legislation, that Guatemalan mechanics and Burmese veterinarians are no longer excluded from our national conversation. You’re soaking in it.
