If you aren’t approving and endorsing perversion, it’s hate speech.

All this really is is attemping to criminalize and make illegal other belief systems than those liberals agree with.

Plain and simple. Since when are they arbiters of right and wrong? Seems their tolerance falls a little short. The whole “we are not tolerant of the intolerant” seems rather subjective as they decide what “intolerant” is. It’s also monumentally hypocritical.

But they are attempting to codify it as illegal or criminal behavior using the wording of Hate Speech.

These are the same liberals who in the 60s demanded free speech for their views on campuses largely conservative. They demanded it as their constitutional rights. They said unpopular or not they had a right to say it. And that they were being oppressed by the university leaders and censored and all that crap, and now that THEY are the leaders with the power they do the exact same thing.

Ultimate Hypocrisy, they have become what they hated.

“Would love to see the terms “hate speech”, “hate crime”, “homophobia”, “racist”, “bigot”, and “climate change” deleted from the language.”


Can I add “social justice” to your list?

And “inequality”. I am sure there are more. I would also include “people of color”. Not even sure what that means.

I assume this signals a mindset that is NO LONGER OPEN to any POV other than THEIR OWN.

To the common man this is referred to as the "Dim-Bulb Disease."

I know,it’s ridiculous. I once had a “discussion” about that term with a lib friend and I asked her if she would get “pencils of color” for her class (she teaches),and how about “paper of color”?

She had no reply.

Call the ACLJ, sue the school. It’s the only language they understand.

Incredible that the love between a man and a woman in God’s plan should be called “hate speech.” Is this what we can call the brave new world?

More like Biblical prophesy coming true in our times. Jesus told us that we would be persecuted because of Him and that is surely spreading like wildfire. He also told us that good would be called evil and evil called good.

The question is, since it's all been ordained to happen prior to His glorious return, what are we to do about it? Do we do what the Bible infers cannot/will not be done (return the world to morality) or do we tend to our own spiritual selves and try to carry the Word to those who would hear it while watching the world degenerate into the cesspool that it is ordained to become?

Like a modern day Red Guard. They’ll be burning books and forming mobs in no time.

Exactly my thoughts.

Don't look to Hitler or Stalin to discover what Obama is building: look to Mao.

Not hate-Speech according to God’s word.

Unfortunately, "God's Word" has been restricted to a literary "Maginot Line" with the ascendency of "Bible-Only" Christianity.

Is it any wonder Christianity becomes less relevant by the day throughout the world?

“Orwellian blather from another Ivy-Covered North Korea.”

Well put; these institutions in no way represent the larger culture of this country, and while the demographics don’t favor traditional WASP ideology the replacements (Hispanic and Asian - including Muslims) are hardly tolerant of sexual deviants.

Comedian George Carlin discussed 'people of color.'

First of all, I say "black". I say "black" because most black people prefer "black". I don't say "people of color". People of color sounds like something you see when you are on mushrooms. Besides, the use of people of color is dishonest. It means precisely the same thing as colored people. If you’re not willing to say "colored people" you shouldn't be saying "people of color". Besides, the whole idea of color is bullshit anyway. What should we call white people? "People of no color"? Isn't pink a color? In fact, white people aren’t really white at all, they're different shades of pink, olive and beige. In other words, they're colored. And black people are rarely black. I see mostly different shades of brown and tan. In fact, some light-skinned black people are lighter than the darkest white people. Look how dark the people in India are. They're dark brown but they're still considered white people. What's going on here? May I see the color chart? "People of color” is an awkward, bullshit , liberal-guilt phrase that obscures meaning rather than enhancing it. Shall we call fat people, "people of size"? By the way, I think the whole reason we are encouraged in this country to think of ourselves as black and white (instead of pink and brown, which is what we are) is that black and white are complete opposites that cannot be reconciled. Black and white can never come together. Pink and brown, on the other hand, might just stand a chance of being blended, might just come together. Can't have that! Doesn't fit the plan.

I also don't say "African-American". I find it completely confusing. Which part of Africa are we talking about? What about Egypt? Egypt is in Africa. Egyptians aren’t black. They're like the people in India, they're the dark brown white people. But they're Africans. So why wouldn't an Egyptian who becomes a US citizen be an African-American? The same thing goes for the Republic of South Africa. Suppose a white racist from South Africa becomes an American citizen? Well, first of all, he'd find plenty of company, but couldn't he also be called an African American? It seems to me that a racist white South-African guy could come here and call himself African-American just to piss off black people. And, by the way, what about a black person born in South Africa who moves here and becomes a citizen? What is he? Is he a African-South-African-American? Or a South-African-African-American? All right. Back to the hemisphere. How about a black women who is a citizen of Jamaica? According to P.C. doctrine, she's African-Jamaican, right? But if she becomes a US citizen, she's a Jamaican-American. And yet if one of these language crusaders saw her on the street, he'd think she was African-American. Unless he knew her personally in which case he'd have to decide between African-Jamaican-American and Jamaican-African-American. Ya know? It's just so much liberal bullshit. Labels divide people. We need Fewer labels, not more.

So true!

Funny story - when my daughter was three she was in day care. One afternoon when I picked her up she was telling me about one of her teachers. Not sure which one she was talking about, I asked if she was white. She gave me a strange look and said “she’s peach”. Then she told me about another one and I asked if she was black. She looked at me like I was just stupid and said “she’s brown”. LOL I guess she thought I didn’t know my colors.

Yes, that is exactly what we do. Thanks for the good words. You have inspired me to double down on my efforts in my own spiritual life. The world always was a cesspool, it is just getting worse. I still believe, however, we should also fulfill our civic duty, and help to try and restore some sanity in it, even though we know the eventual outcome.
