Stirling’s comments are despicable, but you’re totally correct. This is a thoughtcrime.

“This is a thoughtcrime.”

A crime is a joint union of act and intent. It isn’t a crime to be an a$$hole. (Yet.)
Arguably, expressing the thought is an act—like defamation—but the Democrats are turning 1000 years of Anglo-American jurisprudence on its head by demanding—as here—that jerks be treated like criminals.
Democracy and its adherents hate liberty. “Hate speech” with jail/prison sentences is next.
