    Ah yes. “The problem” of freedom of speech.

    Such an inconvenience for Nazis.

      None of this has anything to do with free speech. You should argue with your homie who thinks saying mean things to people should land you in jail:

      One day humanity is going to realize that because stress causes physical damage to the brain and body, psychological assault is a real thing and should be a crime just like physical assault.

        Drag Shows are free speech.

        You would know this if you cared whether you were right more than whether you feel right.

        Facts don’t care about your feelings ;)

        Congratulations on a false equivalence between wanting to deny basic human rights to drag queens versus preventing truly oppressive behavior by those who want to rob others of their basic rights and freedom.

        Something, something paradox of tolerance.

        Having your feelings hurt because you can’t oppress the harmless freedom of expression of others isn’t the same at all.
