[quote=Rustico][quote=briansd1]Great beautifully written post, Arraya. I agree also.
With respect to “the desire to stifle certain forms of expression”, it’s now my side’s turn to not waste an opportunity.
As Arraya said, we are shaped by our environment. If we change the language and the culture, we can change society.
The Right wants to wage the culture war. Bring it on. I wouldn’t mind eradicating redneck culture.[/quote]
Yeah brian, but you wouldn’t mind sewing the mouths shut on everyone with a waist that is bigger than their inseam either.[/quote]
Russ: Bingo and excellent shot! (From a Navy guy, no less!). What Brian and his ilk advocate, under the guise of “improving society”, is exactly that: Controlling all “negative” behaviors and thus “perfecting” society.
Of course, having a pretext helps and here comes the Gifford shooting. Which is why we find ourselves again listening to the Left complain about those nasty guns and that awful hate speech, and, gee, if we just did away with both, wouldn’t we all be happy, shiny squirrels?
