Nope..all leftists know even hate speech is protected by the First Amendment. And there is nothing in leftist politics equating hate speech with killing someone. It is the right that is claiming calling rightwingers fascists causes them to be killed. It does not. There is simply no causal connection between anything Leftists believe or have said and CK's murder by Tyler Robinson. Robinson is entirely responsible for it. He planned it out. And he alone is guilty of it.

Quote:The difference is that this leftist ideology is being celebrated by millions more people, where the left and the right use to both condemn political violence.

And yet millions who espouse leftist ideology are not killing people because of it. Strange wouldn't you say?

Quote:You're a moron if you think Christians and Muslims share common cause

It's the same hatred and intolerance for disbelievers in their religion. The same need to judge and condemn anyone who doesn't obey their God given laws. The same literalist interpretation of holy scripture. And the same irrational homophobia. It is exactly the same thing.

Where did anyone say leftists thought "hate speech" was illegal? Who equated it to anything?

In a new FIRE poll, 4 in 5 Americans (80%) agree at least slightly with the idea that “words can be violence.”
Democrats and women were most likely to agree words are violence, and Republicans and men were least likely to agree.

2017 Why It's a Bad Idea to Tell Students Words Are Violence
A claim increasingly heard on campus will make them more anxious and more willing to justify physical harm.

Democrats, women (who mostly vote Democrat), and schools (largely run by Democrats).
People don't get radicalized out of nowhere. If you don't understand how calling people Hitler can justify violence against them (evidence all the leftists celebrating), you're just ignorant.

Like I said before, most leftists are pansies... hence all those who want to but can't experiencing such schadenfreude.

Only from your particular paranoid viewpoint.

You're the one claiming hate speech equates to committing a violent act. It doesn't. It's protected under the first amendment and is not against the law. And no leftists believe hate speech is equivalent to murdering someone. You and Trump are the ones making the claim. But you have no evidence for it at all.

Irrelevant as to why they don't commit murder. They simply do not, which overwhelmingly proves leftist ideology in no way justifies killing anybody just for speaking their mind.

It's the right that has all the islamophobes and mosque bombers. The left has no such hostility towards Muslims at all. At least not until their more radicalized adherents start flying airliners into skyscrapers. But then that's the religious fundamentalists again.

The same people who cancelled:

- Rosanne
- Scott Adams
- Dave Chappell
- Tucker Carlson
- Megyn Kelly
- Shane Gillis
- Gina Carano
- Hulk Hogan
- Russel Brand
- Tim Allen
- JK Rowling
- Kid Rock
- Jordan Peterson

- And many more…

And shot Trump & Charlie…

Now want us to feel bad for Jimmy Kimmel?

No. I don't think so.

While I tend to oppose cancel-culture on principle, I have to say that my attitude right now towards Kimmel is Schadenfreude. It's FAFO, they dished it out freely, now it's rebounding on them. Poetic justice.

Jimmy Kimmel is a multi-millionaire many times over who was making a reported $15 million/year from ABC. He'll land on his feet.

There's a big difference between a person who gets canceled by their peers or studios because of some taboo behavior and a government agency threatening to yank a license of a network for some comments a comedian made. One is entirely legal and doesn't violate anyone's rights while the other is a blatant violation of the right to free speech. It's all very obvious that this FCC chairman is just doing the bidding of Trump in trying to silence all criticism and mocking of him because what Kimmel actually said was not offensive at all. It's like he was looking for any little excuse to shut him down. And that is illegal.

No, I'm not. But you'd have to be able to read to know that.
First, I don't believe in hate speech, so I wouldn't equate made up bullshit with anything.
Second, hate speech is supposedly "offensive discourse targeting a group or an individual based on inherent characteristics (such as race, religion or gender) and that may threaten social peace."
So unless you think someone can be born a Nazi, the term doesn't apply to anything I've said.

Absolutely relevant why people who openly celebrate murder don't commit it themselves.
If they weren't afraid of the consequences, their reaction proves they would.

Exactly. The left is far more allied with Muslims, just as I said.

Nexstar, the nation’s largest station owner, denied on Thursday that it pulled “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” off the air due to pressure from FCC Chairman Brendan Carr.

The company announced the decision hours after Carr threatened to take action against ABC affiliates over Kimmel’s comments about Charlie Kirk’s killer. Carr also urged affiliates to preempt the show.

Asked whether Nexstar’s decision was in any way influenced by Carr’s remarks, Gary Weitman, the company’s chief communications officer, said “No.”

“The decision to preempt ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ was made unilaterally by the senior executive team at Nexstar, and they had no communication with the FCC or any government agency prior to making that decision,” Weitman said.

You're the one defending Trump's claim that the leftists are responsible for CK's death. The only way that could be possible is if their speech caused TR to shoot him. Are you now reversing your claim? That leftists had nothing to do with the shooting?

Quote:So unless you think someone can be born a Nazi, the term doesn't apply to anything I've said.

Good. So neither leftists nor leftist ideology are responsible for CK's murder. I'm glad you came to your senses.

AS I pointed out already, nothing in leftist ideology teaches that killing someone for their speech is justified or to be celebrated. If there's some people celebrating his death, it has nothing to do with being leftist. It just means they're pricks.

Quote:Exactly. The left is far more allied with Muslims, just as I said.

As an ethnicity. Just as they are with Pakistinians and immigrants and blacks and all ethnicities.

Incitement to violence is illegal. It's not some nebulous "hate speech."

I've already shown you that "words are violence" overwhelmingly comes from Democrats. If you believe "words are violence," of course you can justify using violence against someone's speech. It then become a supposed self-defense.
ALL of the people celebrating are Leftists. PERIOD.
