You only had 228 years to learn, leftard.
It happened to the Russian Kadets, the Mensheviks, the Chinese, the Cambodians, and now a SJW Americuck. Nobody ever learns.

Three years and four million views after upload, today YouTube has age-restricted my video “Incels.” Age-restriction significantly reduces a video’s visibility, requiring viewers to be logged in and over 18 to watch, and suppressing it in the recommendation algorithm.
YouTube’s community guidelines are supposed to make it clear to creators what content is allowed on the platform. But the guidelines are enforced very arbitrarily (actually, worse than arbitrarily—video restriction/removal is often triggered by an easily abused flagging system)
Randomly enforced restrictions are more restrictive than ones that are consistently enforced. If enforcement is consistent, you know what the rules are, and you can work around them. But arbitrary enforcement forces you into superstitious, neurotic self-censorship
You don’t know what exactly you can get away with, so you start bleeping, blurring, and omitting anything that could possibly be evocative of sex, drugs, violence, profanity, hate speech, or bullying. This is bad for art.
Suppose you’re a history YouTuber. Can you show images of Nazi Germany for educational purposes (images often shown in school to under-18s)? According the the community guidelines yes, but in practice such videos are often restricted or removed for “hate speech.”
Suppose you’re a feminist or sex educator. Can you say the words pornography, rape, clitoris? YouTube is often the only chance to educate teenagers about these topics before PornHub does. But on YouTube, this kind of content is very often age-restricted.
Because most of my funding comes from @Patreon, I’m in the fortunate position of not being financially reliant on the erratic whims of this broken system. So I can afford to take risks. But most creators aren’t so lucky.
Free speech should be reclaimed as an essential leftist issue. We should not surrender the most fundamental civil right to Google LLC in the name of deplatforming rightists and curtailing harassment. It’s not worth the cost.

I’ll call it cancel culture trope 9: Encyclopedia Problematica. There is a parallel between “diet Nazi” Internet (8chan/ED/KF doxxers) and Twitter wokescolds in this tactic of anthologizing a person’s entire history of misdeeds & embarrassments, and weaponizing it to harass them.
“Cancel culture” is not unique to the left. Remember that Gamergate was ignited by a Tumblr-esque callout post (Gamergate being essentially cancel culture for male misogynists)
I’ve noticed a disturbing crossover between far-right doxxing and far-left mobbing, a pipeline of humiliating or incriminating information passing over from one group to the other. Eg, Twitter leftists “canceling” people with information fed to them by doxxers/channers
The “Rape Rap” mentioned in this video being a good example, a cancelable transgression Lindsay never intended for public eyes, preserved and held over her for years by Nazis, only to be trotted out 12 years later by leftists trying to make the case that she’s a Horrible Person
Please be very careful and try to notice when this is happening and not take part. We have to fight for the distinction between good-faith criticism of a person’s words vs. the perverse character assassination that often goes on here.

I can't believe I ended Stalinism

We have a dehumanized ethnic group in concentration camps, a rolling back of rights for women and LGBT+, and now tanks rolling into Washington to be inspected by the demagogue at his military parade. Anyone who isn't now convinced Trump is a fascist will never be convinced.

Battle tanks were seen on a train in Washington ahead of #FourthofJuly celebration highlighting U.S. military might. More here: https:// reut. rs/ 2NtWujw
At this point I'm confident that 30% of Americans would back Trump through the completion of a genocide, if it came to that. I don't think I will ever in my life have much respect for this country again.
I spent so much of 2016-2017 trying to convince people that this man is a fascist. I think that argument is over. People either see it or they don't. It's time now for the people who want to resist to talk strategy, and not be burdened pleading with those who will never listen.

It seems the #1 reason conservatives like Milo is that he's the best piece of evidence supporting their "leftist war on free speech" story.
ie they see his events suppressed by protesters, and in their eagerness to believe the "free speech" thing, they assume he's worth defending
totally naïvely, missing that he's an execrable celebrity troll who intentionally spreads vile lies for attention.
They miss that that's ALL he does. And this will cost them. Because if you choose a guy like that for an ally, you'll end up looking a fool.

So SJWs are part of a "victim cult," but every time someone criticizes you you complain your "free speech" is being taken away?

I'd be happy to tell any of these kids to stop attacking free speech. This is not what I'm talking about.
Evan O'Leary @EvanOLeary· 29 Jul 2016
Ok, if you're talking about an isolated case that's fine, but SJWs generally have this problem where they attack free speech
Natalie WynnVerified account @ContraPoints
Anti-SJWs have this problem where they respond to any criticism by saying "stop attacking my free speech!"
https://archive.ph/XpY2R https:// en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Girondins
Girondins did not share the ferocious fanaticism or the ruthless opportunism of the future Montagnard organisers of the Reign of Terror. As the Revolution developed, the Girondins often found themselves opposing its results; the overthrow of the monarchy on 10 August 1792 and the September Massacres of 1792 occurred while they still nominally controlled the government, but the Girondins tried to distance themselves from the results of the September Massacres.
The trial of the 22 began before the Revolutionary Tribunal on 24 October 1793. The verdict was a foregone conclusion. On 31 October, they were borne to the guillotine. It took 36 minutes to cut off 22 heads, one of which was already dead. Charles Éléonor Dufriche de Valazé had committed suicide the previous day upon hearing the sentence he was given.[17]
Of those who escaped to the provinces, after wandering about singly or in groups most were either captured and executed or committed suicide.
https://archive.ph/7lni4 https:// en. wikipedia. org/wiki/The_Mountain
The Mountain (French: La Montagne) was a political group during the French Revolution. Its members, called the Montagnards (French: [mɔ̃taɲaʁ]), sat on the highest benches in the National Assembly.
They were the most radical group and opposed the Girondins. The term, first used during a session of the Legislative Assembly, came into general use in 1793. By the summer of 1793, that pair of opposed minority groups divided the National Convention. That year, led by Maximilien Robespierre, the Montagnards unleashed the Reign of Terror.
However, this constitution was never actually enacted.[16] The Constitution of 1793 was abandoned when Robespierre later granted himself and the Committee of Public Safety dictatorial powers in order to "defend the Revolution".[17]
https://archive.ph/TUc3U https:// en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Declaration_of_the_Rights_of_the_Man_and_of_the_Citizen_of_1793
The Declaration of the Rights of the Man and of the Citizen of 1793 (French: Déclaration des droits de l'Homme et du citoyen de 1793) is a French political document that preceded that country's first republican constitution. The Declaration and Constitution were ratified by popular vote in July 1793, and officially adopted on 10 August; however, they never went into effect, and the constitution was officially suspended on 10 October. It is unclear whether this suspension was thought to affect the Declaration as well.
Yes, they're called countries. Why build separate facilities for a subset of your population when you can essentially turn the whole country into a concentration camp? That is what they're implementing right now.
What are you even talking about? Always nice to see Americans who've never left their country - expect for Mejico - come and tell the rest of the world that we live in a concentration camp.
It would have been a nice argument for the USSR to use. "We may have gulags, but your country is just a large gulag!"
Since you haven't mentioned anything about Belarus yet, I'm going to assume you live in a "must wear a muzzle" and "be injected with control fluid" country...
Is your camp still so comfy that you don't think of it as a concentration camp yet?
