Yeah, if words like "problematic" are an issue its because they become cutesy go to umbrella terms that obfuscate the actual issue and allow some people to just dismiss it in a way they couldn't "transphobic" or "racist."

This is a rather...simplistic view of the matter. (Cases in which unpopular left-wing speakers benefitted from the First Amendment are not hard to find.)

I'm sure the protesters that the state has murdered for speaking out against it(activists in Ferguson, for instance) are comforted by those courtroom wins.

okay i think we've reached the point where (like every dedicated threads for internet personalities) things collapse into an incredible mess because people have insanely strong views about people who post on the internet
