For any reason.

Free speech is under assault because of a three-step argument made by the advocates and justifiers of violence.
The first step is they say that the validity or invalidity of an argument can be judged solely by the ethnic, sexual, racial, or cultural identity of the person making the argument.
The second step is that they claim those who say otherwise are engaging in what they call “verbal violence,” and the final step is they conclude that physical violence is sometimes justified in order to stop such verbal violence.
So let’s examine each of these three steps in turn. First, the philosophy of intersectionality. This philosophy now dominates college campuses as well as a large segment, unfortunately, of today’s Democratic Party and suggests that straight, white Americans are inherently the beneficiaries of white privilege and therefore cannot speak on certain policies, since they have not experienced what it’s like to be black or Hispanic or gay or transgender or a woman.
This philosophy ranks the value of a view, not based on the logic or merit of the view, but on the level of victimization in American society experienced by the person espousing the view. Therefore, if you’re an LGBT black woman, your view of American society is automatically more valuable than that of a straight, white male.
The next step in the logic is obvious. If a straight, white male, or anybody else who ranks lower on the victimhood scale, says something contrary to the viewpoint of the higher-ranking, intersectionality identity, that person has engaged in a microaggression.
As NYU social psychologist Jonathan Haidt writes, “Microaggressions are small actions or word choices that seem on their face to have no malicious intent, but that are thought of as a kind of violence nonetheless.”
You don’t have to actively say anything insulting to microaggress. Somebody merely needs to take offense. If, for example, you say that society ought to be colorblind, you’re microaggressing certain identity groups who have been victimized by a noncolorblind society.
Note: Microaggressions, as the name suggests, are not merely insults. They are aggressions. They are the equivalent of physical violence.

Very well done.
1. the validity or invalidity of an argument can be judged solely by the ethnic, sexual, racial, or cultural identity of the person making the argument.
2. claim those who say otherwise are engaging in what they call “verbal violence,”
3. conclude that physical violence is sometimes justified in order to stop such verbal violence.
Note:
Microaggressions, as the name suggests, are not merely insults. They are aggressions. They are the equivalent of physical violence.
This is both inane and dangerous. That’s because it leads to the final logical step: Words you don’t like deserve to be fought physically.
Just being white is enough, apparently.
Sounds just like Nazi Germany. No wonder Antifa was so angry in Virginia. They wanted to show the world they, Antifa, are the real Nazis and those skinheads were just fakes! I got it now, I understand! Antifa is the rebirth of Nazi Germany!
“Hate speech” will be without protection within the next 30 years. I don’t doubt for a minute. It will probably tear the country apart.
that is not as far as it will go.
they will just attack you because you’re a white guy.
they do it now.
xlnt

Thanks! I think I found it on 8 Chan or The Donald.
Offhand do u know the backup, new Twitter site for:

They warned they might get shut-down and had provided a backup but I was complacent and chose to believe Twitter would allow them to live a bit longer.
:(
Any ideas..?
The first point shows that the Left is racist. More tolerant than thou hypocrites.
Another step closer to CW-2...
This first argument contains racialism -- mainly against straight white males -- along with the logical fallacy much loved by the left: the ad hominin argument. It is a logical fallacy instead of logic. Also, I don't think the two...propositions logically support the conclusion of violence against the right because they are not in syllogistic form; e.g.,
if Socrates is a man
and all men are mortal, therefore;
Socrates is mortal.
That woman got her head smashed in by a bike lock swung by a college professor(!) and gay man, Milo Yannopoulis, nearly got barbecued in Berkeley because of this nonsense. And those are just a few examples.
Fear not. Timpangos and Sargon and me, we got this figured out. All us freepers are gonna be there the next time Antifa rears it’s ugly head and we are gonna give them the beat down they got coming. There oughta be about 20,000 of us next time around and we are making sure there won’t be any damn Nazis or White Nationalists. Gonna be nothing but freepers. Nothing but bona fide Constitutional Conservatives. In fact we are working on a screening form to make sure we aren’t infiltrated by any White Nationalists or pro abortion agosntic squishy economic conservatives or libertarian dope smokers. The Kinko’s bill is gonna be outrageous and we may have to set up a GoFundMe page to cover the expenses of making out the forms. But when we kick Antifa’s ass they are gonna know their ass has been kicked by 100% freeper Constitutional Conservatives. There won’t be any BSM microscopically giving all of us a background colonoscopy because we will already have done it and we won’t be called racist or misogynist or any of that crap. All 20,000 of us will be so thoroughly researched we won’t have to be ashamed to be there. I hear that there are literally millions of Black and Hispanic Constitutional Conservatives just waiting for us to get out of our Barcaloungers so we got them swelling our ranks.
I know all this to be true because I have been reading for days that all these freepers are out there just chomping at the bit to get out there and take care of business and they would, too, but there were Nazis and White Nationalists and they didn’t want to have nothing to do with them. Well, don’t worry. There are so many of you that I know we can rest assured that the next time Antifa surfaces we will send them back to the sewers they came from. I mean, I have been reading your posts and you all sound like there was just this one little thing holding you back. You aren’t afraid of getting acid squirted in your face or getting a skull fracture from a bike lock. But you don’t ever want to do anything that could give someone reason to think you might be racists.
Well don’t you worry. We’ll see you there. Today the Remote, Tomorrow the WORLD!
