Nice in theory. But good luck getting rid of it when market forces don't work anymore because the market has been fully transformed into that oligopolistic, ESG governance-complying fascist tool. “Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power.” — Benito Mussolini.
No he is Reseterist.
Yep, absolutely this.
Because she speaks the truth?
That is the SJW mindset everywhere, not just the Era NPCs.
I'll have you know I rocked the shit out of Spider-Man 2600, back in 1982.
PETA kidnaps pets and murders them, under the guise of "better dead than a slave".
Nobody is censoring him, or attempting to censor him. WTF are you talking about?
There is no helping you.
She speaks the truth. Cope.
You sound a little bit unhinged tbh and the terminology you're using, it sounds more the style that is used on that "your not allowed to have other opinions than our opinions site"
+1 to this!
You speak of nuance and call her a cunt. Maybe you don't know what that word means?
She has strong opinions related biological sex vs. gender identity. That's illegal now?
I never argued otherwise; it's almost a non-remark to point out that everyone has their own perception of right and wrong. What has tended to belong exclusively to appointed authorities, however, is the law: the creation and enforcement of law. Vigilantism is quite literally people taking the law into their own hands. Why am I explaining this to you? You know this. You either agree that it's alright for people to operate outside the law whenever they feel justified, or you don't, but that includes people that storm the Capitol Building as well as people that get angry on Twitter.
Exactly.
Can't agree with you here. If the law is lacking, people should try to change it for the better, not "create a defense". One of the issue of today's world is that social medias tend to turn comfirmation bias to eleven and to make people think that whatever belief their social bubble shares is accepted society-wide.
Reading that post I was thinking to myself that people nowadays seem to hate democracy. Is democraphobia a thing? Maybe there's an ironic alternate universe where there are twitter mobs aimed at such an offense
A difference in outcome but not a difference in principle. Both perceive injustice that is not being tackled by the law so act to tackle it themselves. There are currently no laws protecting someone from being targeted by this form of online vigilantism but that's because it's relatively new and the law has yet to catch up. I imagine it will in time and it should. Freedom of speech should and does protect your right to tell someone you think they're views are abhorrent, but it should not give you the right to interfere with thier private life: to put pressure on employers, colleagues, business partners and other private contacts in the hope of exacting material economic and social harm against them for exercising thier basic rights to freedom of thought and expression.
What is the truth then? What did she say "specifically" that is transphobic?
The lack of self-awareness here is off the charts! Blatant hypocrisy.
That's exactly what the people storming the capital were thinking too.
You don't have to agree with Rowling, or even like her, but this is over-the-top, she's not some rambling idiot who rambled idiot things. If you think she's that bad, you gotta have a reason other than parroting things from twitter. What exactly is the big problem you have with Rowling?
This is the shit that bothers me. Who said it was illegal, or should be illegal, to have strong opinions? Nobody. If you have a strong opinion that directly contradicts peoples' worldviews then you shouldn't be surprised when you get pushback. That's how this whole thing works!
To some degree, it makes sense to have some kind of moderation. What is being called outrageous by some people is completely and utterly banal stuff, people should not get in trouble for being disagreable, or just not agreeing... even being mean to a degree (however that passes and is encouraged if this is done to someone who disagrees with the mob... Not sure who would gloat is JK rowling was violently attacked, but I'm sure some genius journalist would start the article with a disclaimer about her being anti trans or something ridiculous of that type—which she is not by any reasonable definition).
It's almost like the masses crave a religion, even if that religion isn't explicitly called one. Also the old religions had much more concrete dogma.
I'm beginning to suspect that irrationality is inherent to mankind, and societies evolve traditional religious institutions for a purpose : channeling irrationality throught the least socially damaging purposes as possible. Destroy religion, and irrationality contaminate the rest of society.
