Some 'Tweets' on Free Speech

You don't need Twitter to tweet. You don't need X to EXpress yourself.

Thanks to Elon Musk, Twitter has been liberated from the speech police.  Free at last! I may sign up. In these hyperkinetic times, pithy sayings are needed to punch through the noise. And sometimes one needs to SHOUT.

Dissent is not hate. If I dissent from your VIEWS, it does not follow that I hate YOU.

Can a contemporary 'liberal' distinguish between a person and the proposition he asserts? If he can, but he doesn't, then he ought to be morally reprimanded. We have a moral responsibility to try to think straight. We may not succeed, but we must try.

Don't confuse being judgmental with making moral judgments.

Don't make Dennis Prager's mistake of saying that the the First Amendment protects 'hate speech.' That formulation is a foolish concession to the Left's notion that conservative speech is hate speech. The First Amendment protects DISSENT. Hate, like love, is in the eye of the beholder, and leftists are not known for their 'visual' acuity.

The trouble with 'liberals' is that they are ruled by their emotions. That is why they hear dissent as hate.

The growing feminarchy within the Democrat Party will only exacerbate the party's governance by emotion. Is that a 'sexist' thing to say? Not if it is true; it is true; ergo, it is not 'sexist.'

Dissent is not hate. But even if dissent is couched in (what some inappropriately sensitive person  takes to be) harsh and hurtful or even hateful language, it still must be protected.

I apologize for repeating all of these obvious points. But in these benighted times, they need to be stated time and time again.  

THE DEMS NO LONGER SUPPORT FREE SPEECH. And you are STILL a Democrat? What is wrong with you? Jonathan Turley:

Yet recently, the Democratic Party seems to have abandoned its historic fealty to free speech. Democratic writers and leaders are publicly calling for everything from censorship to the criminalization of free speech. The latest such clarion call appeared in The Washington Post by a column from MSNBC analyst and former Obama official Richard Stengel.
