^^Cuckoo cuckoo!

Nice straw man you whipped up there, Mikey. Where’d you hear such horse manure? Not surprising, however, that you didn’t miss a chance for a dig at the LGBT community…

LOL Mike, you come up with some of the best stuff. Not sure if everyone will get this one.

That looks like a bearded guy who has protested facts being taught in schools.

The guy with the board looks like one of the people who has claimed twitter, a private company with community guidelines for use, claims limiting some comments is against 1st Amendment freedom of speech.

Elon Musk — “You know Twitter is being fair when extremists on far right and far left are simultaneously upset!”

People on one side being mad because you’re not supporting Nazis enough and other people being mad because you are giving any support at all to Nazis doesn’t mean you’re doing anything right.

It just means you’re supporting Nazis.

-repugs have now co-opted the term “free speech” to mean telling lies, disinfo and hate speech w/o consequence, …that’s not how it works snowflakes.

Elon unbanned Andrew Anglin (@totalfascism), proprietor of Nazi propaganda website Daily Stormer who had been banned since 2013. But banned Chad Loder, a citizen journalist who had been tracking far right extremism and propaganda including unmasking many Charlottesville Nazis and Jan 6 rioters as well as fact checking dishonest fascist propagandist Andy Ngo (who of course is still there).

Amazing ,,, Lester gets paid for this s#)*!

That’s the left!

…while telling you it’s raining.

Reading some of the comments here and other places and I’m beginning to wonder. Most “right” leaning commentors complain that the “left” is trying to censor free speech. So what exactly are they referring to?

From what I can see social media platforms have rules of conduct about the kinds of things one can say on their platforms, community standards. No inciting violence, no hate speech ( antisemitism, racism, things like that), and misinformation (a bit nebulous, but there are some lies that can harm the community). My question is: Why does it matter what you’re political bent is? Shouldn’t any decent person be offended by a Holocaust Denier? Shouldn’t we all be concerned with people trying to stir up violence on line? Are you OK with racist rants? Are you cool with people pushing harmful information on line? Do you believe in community standards?

Hate speech is not free speech and lies aren’t funny.

I’ve read that vinegar works for some jellyfish stings, but not urine. Urine can trigger the stinging cells to release more poison.

When free speech takes a rotten turn…(to those who don’t think for themselves..)

Inciting violence

Recruiting traitors

Conspiracy theories

Threats

Etc

Hahaha!

The Rainbow Mafia, is a bit too sensitive…………………..

And telling you it’s raining.

White panels for me here, like with other strips.
