WrestlingRasta Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Very interesting read. I’m going to be honest I stopped when he got to LibsofTikTok. (Was understanding his main point by then anyway) Personally agree with a lot of what was written. Don’t know so much of liberal/progressive and what not in terms of definition, but the differences in beliefs and ways on the left in there I can certainly see. I think it’s important for the right to have the same conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncle bernard Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 It's pretty rich to complain about "illiberal" progressives when the right's number one obsession right now is firing people who believe things they don't agree with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husker_Du Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 that's weird for sure. apparently 34 states have some 'solidarity' rule like it. that being said, im not seeing 'people on the right firing personnel en masse due to ideological difference'. when you said it, i thought you were going to reference the law firm that said they wouldn't hire Pro-Palestinian Harvard students. for what it's worth, i wouldn't either. not because of ideological differences, but because i wouldn't have confidence in their critical thinking skills.

Bigbrog Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Hmmm...man...people sure like to twist things. Progressive now have a problem with policy that makes sure people don't discriminate...who knew?!?! And love the attempt to show that teachers got fired because they were gay...shhhh....people may actually get fired for things they did that were fireable offenses, and has nothing to do who they choose to sleep with/love.

Husker_Du Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 there's a new video of some whacked out woke ass elementary teacher everyday on social media bragging about how he/she pushes sexuality in their classroom.

Ban Basketball Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Ain't seeing these folks cancelling culture through legislatures, but I sure see conservatives and authoritarians doing it. I can't believe the 30 percenters have zero self-reflective abilities. The first thing I'd do is delete that tweet, once I realized that it was my kind who were doing all of those things.

Same guy who complains about Palestinians using violence says this about their attempt to secure their rights peacefully lol. Perfect example of why people turn to Hamas.
