so funny to see somebody claiming to know Hollywood but doesn't understand that posting stuff on social media means anyone can respond, even people who don't agree. and then turns off replies and reposts. what a moron.

Germany knows how this movie ends. have to be rid of AfD. f-ck freedom of speech. fascist ideas don't deserve tolerance in Germany, America, or anywhere else.

no it is not. right wing hatred should be cancelled. stop with the false equivalence sh-t.

people who didn't vote failed a simple test: yes or no to fascism, end of democracy and science, governance by a criminal mob boss and rapist. simple. just had to show up. easier than a thousand "No Kings" protests. Karl Popper:

Boeing stock is at a 52-week high. I don't think you know what you're talking about. they have a problem, but your point that the selling is done is laughably wrong.

what a clown. Stephen miller is doing this, and Jeffries is still banging on about the price of eggs. No wonder Democrats can't win.

I don't want to include fascists, nazis, Opus Dei extremists, KKK, racists, violent militias, MAGA, etc. inclusion? sounds like approval of all those groups. not from me. no approval given. Popper's paradox: we cannot tolerate intolerance. what do they all have in common? all christians.

I can't help but contrast this with the popper paradox of tolerance. Popper lived after our constitution was written. you're free to criticize the government all you want. that's what the first amendment says. but lie incessantly? threaten violence? spread hatred? no, not protected.

exactly right. misogyny, racism, homophobia are not ideas to be "debated". this is Karl Popper's tolerance paradox:
