The new definition of “bully” according to the presstitutes is someone who doesn’t let the presstitutes bully them.
The new progressive plan:
* they’re smart, rational, educated, moral, good
* smear everyone who holds a dissenting view as irrational (phobic, bigot) and/or evil
* “Let’s ban hate speech!” It sounds good because it seems like you’re saying “let’s make inciting a riot/lynching illegal.”
* your conservative views are motivated by hate, it is hate speech, shut up
* words are associated with violence, allowing people to define expression of dissenting views as equal to assault
* You don’t shut up? You’re bullying me. Continue to spew hate speech? You hurt me first, I can physically attack you.
* You teach those hateful, violent views in a group? We can ban your group as a precursor to violence. And we can threaten to destroy property and lives because you started it by triggering us.
Social justice warriors are already responding to “hate speech” with physical assaults on people. When they steal signs, rip up posters or hit people, they honestly believe YOU are the bully because you dared hurt them first with your hateful views. “Safe spaces” where no one can counter your narrative further this view, because violating your pure self with contrary facts or opinions other than validating you are equated with assault.
You see the early stages of that process on news stations when they issue trigger warnings before showing conservative events and speakers, pre-positioning the content as unacceptable, insane.
Censorship in the name of feelings is already standard on Facebook, Twitter, ramping up on Linkedin.
I fear the latter stages are setting in for society, like when BLM attacks white people and gets a pass because how dare that white person be there. Conservatives and whites getting turned into dhimmi or untouchables, tolerated at best, regularly subject to regular humiliation and periodic pogroms because how dare they not belong to the upper class.
