This is not attacking free speech. This is part of free speech.

This is not attacking free speech. Private companies can control speech as they choose.

That is up to their country.

A few Conservatives want to make all offensive speech unacceptable -- which is very wrong.

Offensive speech is protected by the First Amendment, but you seem confused by what it actually says.

So freakin' what? I'm sure each of us could google a dozen sites saying the same thing about women... and just about everybody else.

So because there are other hate minded websites out there it makes this one OK?
 
Some great minds of our time argue that this is not sexism -- since men are the "privileged oppressors".

My point is that blaming all men for crimes of some is evil, and wishing harm upon innocent people is evil. Many Progressives who rightly denounce racists for blaming minorities for higher crime rate are excusing this particular evil as a satire.

What I find strange is that some men side with the enemy: Outraged.jpg

If there's anything that we can depend upon the males who look down on women as being angry/emotional/etc., it is being angry/emotional/etc. themselves.

Seriously, have you never heard of satire?

All my life, a long life, I've heard bigots and racists and people who hate excuse their nonsense with, "I was just joking." T'aint funny, McGee.

Not being a liberal, I don't think speech should be criminalized. I don't believe in thought crimes, either.
