Unpopular opinion: The Norse pantheon is better than the Greek pantheon, by virtue of Odin being more interesting and cooler than Zeus, and that the Greek mythos lacks a Loki. But the Greek mythos has cooler monsters. Cyclops, Medusa, the hydra, Scylla, Charybdis, harpies, Cerberus, etc. vs...what? Fenrir? Jormangandr? Okay, a giant wolf and a giant snake are pretty cool but the Norse monsters lack variety. The Greek stuff is batshit nuts. Ooh, but the Norse stuff has better undead. Draugr is a cooler concept than the boring shades of Hades just moping around in a big cave.

Is Trapped in the Closet a musical or an opera?

Opera. The difference is whether it's a play with songs, or, if the actual dialogue is them singing what they're doing. Repo is the latter as well.

Blue Star posted:This is all true. I agree that speech which advocates violence against a certain group shouldnt be protected. Its just amazing that me simply saying "Free speech is good" has brought out the weirdos in this thread. no one disagrees with that, but if "free speech" in your mind immediately leads to nazis, lol you are a nazi. you are the one that mentioned nazis. people are shouting you down because everyone that isn't you hates nazis. it is their right to exercise their freedom of speech by saying "nazis are in fact bad" if you are scared of being called a nazi ur a nazi why do people mention nazis? bc you specifically defended nazis. i often express controversial opinions but do not worry about being called "nazi" bc i do not express nazi opinions Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 21:37 on Nov 28, 2017 |

Edgar Allen Ho posted:no one disagrees with that, but if "free speech" in your mind immediately leads to nazis, lol you are a nazi. you are the one that mentioned nazis. This is so stupid it hurts. I mentioned Nazis because i've seen people try to equate supporting free speech with being pro-hate speech and being pro-Nazi. An unpopular opinion on the left is that free speech is good and should be protected, whereas a popular opinion seems to be that only Nazis like free speech because it lets them organize and spread their rhetoric. I happen to think free speech is good, despite being a leftist myself, and added the Nazi part because i knew someone was going to call me a Nazi. And oh look, thats exactly what happened when I posted in this thread: "gently caress off, Nazi". And lol nobody is being "shouted down" in an internet forum, you dork. We're all just typing on our computers. Go outside lmao. I'm not scared of being called a Nazi because i know its bullshit. Your words frankly don't mean anything to me. But its irritating and frankly kind of infuriating to see the Left cede more ground to the alt-right. You're letting them own the concept of free speech. You people are loving weak. Weak and cowardly.

free speech isn't a nazi opinion whining about our local neighborhood nazi's free speech out of nowhere is bc again there is no movement to specifically censor nazis some people act nazi, other people go "nazis are bad" congress does nothing free speech continues if a company stops advertising with someone bc that person expressed hate, that is not an impingement of free speech, that is the company's own free speech to say "actually we do not agree" until some government starts shutting nazis down and stopping them from speaking their minds, then it is you are questionable if you think "free speech is good" and immediately jump to "bbbbut the poor nazis!" if governments step in to specifically shut down fascist speech,THEN it is valid to go "but what about the nazis" Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 22:02 on Nov 28, 2017 |

Edgar Allen Ho posted:free speech isn't a nazi opinion You said free speech is a Nazi opinion, dude. "i often express controversial opinions but do not worry about being called "nazi" bc i do not express nazi opinions" All I said was that I support free speech and that this doesn't make me a Nazi. That's not a controversial opinion. I didn't say Nazis deserve free speech. I didn't say Nazis shouldnt be censored. You made that up about me. But you insinuated that what I DID say was a "nazi opinion", so...yeah. As for people who act Nazi, the appropriate response is to punch them. Not remove free speech or declare that free speech is actually a Nazi position and anyone who holds it is secretly (or not secretly) a Nazi. But you strike me as someone who is afraid to punch Nazis in real life, so you're trying to overcompensate by harassing a trans woman online.

Christ, no wonder the Left is losing, if this is the best we can do. Look at the way you people try to put words in my mouth, to claim i've said things I never said or hold positions that I don't actually hold. Why are you like this? Its loving weird as hell. "Free speech is good and saying this doesn't make me a Nazi" "ARE YOU SOME KIND OF NAZSI???" Do you all hear yourselves? Why are you like this? "Whoa, I never said that i supported Nazis. I don't." "GGRRRRRR, THEN DONT STICK UP FOR NAZIS GGRRRRR"

I'm not afraid that this makes me some kind of Nazi because i know where I stand (against Nazis). But the rest of you would probably kowtow to Nazis in real life.

I'm also pro-gun, though i dont own a gun myself. I bet most of you who are anti-free speech are also anti-gun. As a trans person, i reserve the right to defend myself. And yes, the odds of me being physically hosed with are much higher than a typical cis person. If i had a gun i wouldnt hesitate to give someone's skull a new skylight if they started poo poo with me for being trans. This shouldn't be a controversial opinion and in fact should be pretty understandable, but then again I just got called nazi by people itt for supporting free speech, so I dunno. I wonder if the people who are anti-free speech and anti-gun are speaking from a position of privilege? Hmmm?
