Again, it’s their use in a joke that delivers the whole discussion around CRT into the shitter, enabling right wing agenda. They’re not out to win the argument, they’re out to muddy the waters.
So by that logic, we shouldn't make any political jokes anymore? This is getting awfully close to censorship.
I didn’t block you from making the joke. That’s censorship. I merely pointed out the problem in doing so and that I’m done with it. Take pepe, see how the right ran with that to the point it represents racism.
No, you don't have the power/ability to censor, so you're doing the only thing you can, which is attempting to stifle speech that you (incorrectly) think is counter to your own beliefs, in true right-wing style.
Congratulations! You've become the thing you say you're fighting against!
I know, and that's why I didn't say it was actually censorship. Just really close.
Not at all really. I don't see how this person having an (idiotic) opinion stifles/prevents/affects anyone's speech in any way.
Not close at all, but ok.
The discussion started in the shitter, it's never not been in the shitter. Did you think that Chris Rufo was making some high minded philosophical point when he wrote about making everything CRT as a weapon?
