RE: Hmmm.... Why now are simple natural language processing robots with some physical animatronics being granted citizenship?

The sad thing.

Milo is a Gay guy and his husband is black. Oh and he is Jewish.

He get's called a Nazi a lot.

Clearly the people that use the term Nazi very liberally these days and fascist have no real clear what the word means. They don't need to. They can just mindlessly chant and not have a discussion. Much like children sticking their fingers in their ears and saying nanny nanny boo boo.

I see examples of this frequently. It is encouraged.

Milo's big moments that allow them to justify all of this are basically that he supports Trump, free speech, and doesn't really filter what he says. He doesn't go out of his way not to offend people.

I personally think that is what is needed now. I know you don't care for Trump, but regardless I also know you support free speech so it doesn't matter whether you like Trump or not. Not liking Trump is not sudden license to stick your brain on a shelf inside of a box.

Sort:  

I prefer people to speak what they feel. If that is "offensive", I do not care. I do not have to listen. There have been a few people through the years that I heard and decided I was not overly fond of their position on things. Never would I go to lengths to stop them from speaking. At the same time, I rarely listen to what they have to say. If someone I know says "oh I really liked what they said about..." I would listen to it; however, I will not seek out their opinion.

I do not care for Trump as the representative of America. There have been plenty of moments where I wish he had more tact. His opinion is his to have, even as the president, but that does not mean I like how he expressed it. I have to say he has made a few moves that made me go "wow, he actually did that?" AKA - He had our embassy moved to Jerusalem. The fact he actually did it impresses me. He promised to do it and did it. That is a rare sight in politics. Especially when it comes to Israel and Palestinian fiasco.

Admittedly I have not heard about Milo before you posted that, but I do not think that excuses their behavior. Even if he was a Nazi (since that is the fun thing to call people as you point out), they are not actually accomplishing change. Instead those people are being rude, disruptive to the business, and bullying. If you act bully the bully, are you really standing for anything?
