Praising the true modern version of actual genuine Nazis is ok?
Praising HAMAS is free expression.
Praising Trump is unacceptable.
Around the 1973 Yom Kippur War I heard one college woman asked by another what her checkered black and white scarf meant.
“I actually don’t know. I think it has something to do with wanting peace in the Middle East.”
(The shemagh, also known as the keffiyeh or Arab scarf.)
I have no problem with expressing support for Hamas. I also dont have a problem with expressing support for Israel. It is when people move beyond expression and undertake violence.
For a liberal hate speech all depends on who you are hating. Hating Jews is OK. Hating conservatives is OK. Hating white colonizers (what other kind of colonizer is ther.) is ok. The trifecta is white Jewish colonizers.What you can’t hate is anyone in their intersectional club of commie misfits with the moral compass of a rattle snake.
“Swarthmore College says praise of Hamas is part of the ‘free exchange of diverse ideas and perspectives’”
I have no problem with that as long as
1) the school doesn’t promote Hamas and their atrocities against Jews, and
2) the school permits no violence or intimidation against the jews
Ideas that are adversarial to ours should not threaten us. Our country is founded upon freedom and freedom of speech. As Reagan said, the truth wins in a free society as long as the people are informed and there is a free flow of information. Knowledgeable people will always vote for freedom.
Figures. The head is a woman. And I say this as a woman myself.
Well Swarthmore College they’ll still kill the men and rape the women at your suck up college
My daughter received a full free ride to Swarthmore . . . and turned it down. I am so glad she stayed in Texas. Now, more than ever.
As if Hamas has a “free exchange of diverse ideas and perspectives”.
Swarthmore.....
A lib bastion....even since the time of The Mamas and the Papas.
To the title:
Yeah.
Because democrat.
As long as your “free expression” falls on the woke side of the narrative, you can incite violence, praise murder and mayhem, even use social media to organize violence.
If you’re woke, it’s all good.
Sure, people are entitled to be wrong, stupid, ignorant, obtuse, evil, etc.
This all started around the time Al Gore took credit for inventing the internet.
Oh, what am I asking, the left believes in abortion right up to birth.
Cass is still a sophomore.
No longer plans to go to Swarthmore.
