First they came for the Nazis, and I didn't speak up, for I wasn't a Nazi.

Then they came for the white nationalists, and I didn't speak up for I wasn't a white nationalist.

Then they came for the fascist insurrectionists, and I didn't speak up for I wasn't a fascist insurrectionist.

Then noone came for me because I wasn't a fucking monster, and by that time, there was no monsters left to whine about culture war bullshit.

Then the country was pretty damn great, actually, and we enjoyed our new found freedom and age of equality and prosperity.

Has anyone stopped to consider that maybe she's just a ragebait shill? and everyone angry about her and talking about her are doing exactly as she intended. Occupying your brain space and wasting your time, distracting you from a million more important things you could be doing.

This is a weird topic, because on the one hand, they have every right to speak and assemble, no matter how much we like it. Even the ACLU took on a case defending the American Nazi Party and their right to assemble and march. It truly is a right which the government cannot have any say in who it applies to. I won't go into any bullshit argument that they'll go after other people next, but it's a right that needs to apply to everyone.

However, that only applies to the government. Everyone else can and should tell them to go fuck themselves and corporations can ban their asses from every service online. They don't have any right to having their voices amplified online or any other service.

You know, if AT&T starts shutting off phone service to people who repeatedly talk about how Hitler made good points, I won't lose any sleep over it. If I know better than to talk about how burning down billboards is based via SMS, then nazis should know better than to talk about how cool Hitler was.

I also love how she says that "conservative Christians" are being targeted too, and the two links she provides are about a church that "offers help to people who want to move away from same-sex attraction or behaviours," aka conversion therapy, aka a practice that's been proven ineffective and harmful, and a story about Vanco dropping the Ruth Institute for "promoting hate." But they don't promote hate! All they do (literally all they do) is try to destroy the rights of LGBT folks! You name something the LGBT community likes, the Ruth Institute has probably spent time and energy fighting against it.

If conservative Christians are all like the Ruth Institute and Core Issues Trust, then I say cancel em all.
