I think I've been ideologically consistent but feel free to continue looking and post any examples where I'm against freedom of speech and individuality. *note when I say freedom of speech and expression I don't necessarily mean unreasonable forced accommodation and celebration and there is a bit of nuance in my opinions
IE I might draw a line between megacorp oligarchies making it virtually impossible to have an opinion heard and 1/1000000000000000000000000000x10^graham's number cake shops not necessarily wanting to bake a ssm cake
I didn’t intend to imply that you weren’t consistent. I think that consistency to ones beliefs is a positive thing. I just hope that change is possible when faced with evidence that may contradict ones beliefs.
What I intended to imply is that your comment history appears to align with sympathizing with right of center while sarcastically deriding left of center. I think that knowing that colors your comment differently than if your comment history were more neutral in its expressions. There is nothing wrong with that really.
I have my own biases and you have your own biases. I for one believed in completely free and unrestricted speech at one point. However, I’ve come to realize that the tongue can be as sharp as the sword. Hate speech, relentless bullying, and suggesting violent actions towards others have little place in a civilized society. Of course there are degrees of each, and there is the problem of ‘definition’. Who defines what qualifies for the aforementioned and what the severity is can have chilling effects.
Still the problem remains, and I don’t disagree with you entirely. Why should Facebook, Twitter, or any other ubiquitous stage for discourse get to define what is and isn’t appropriate speech? We as a society have created these massive soapboxes yet utterly failed at remaining civil. A modern day tragedy of commons.
