Most people don't seem to support freedom of speech all that much either

2018-09-04 14:10:37 UTC  

Unfortunately

2018-09-04 14:11:02 UTC  

Thats because they dont see its value

2018-09-04 14:11:24 UTC  

They assune it wont be their speech thats censored

2018-09-04 14:13:58 UTC  

Part of freedom of association is choosing who you associate with. I don't hate all of Pragers ideas, but I *personally* don't want our brand to be publicly associated with him and Prager U.

2018-09-04 14:14:59 UTC  

I didn't associate you witht he alt-right, Joshua. I observed taht saying 'our whole thing' is freedom of association when it isn't directly stated in the principles is dangerous turf.

2018-09-04 14:15:31 UTC  

I don't want to give any ideologues the idea that they can simply point at Prager, then point at us and say we're just Tradcons larping as Liberals

2018-09-04 14:15:49 UTC  

Its not like he said it at a press brief

2018-09-04 14:16:07 UTC  

Oh alright then, then I guess I am not allowed to disagree.

2018-09-04 14:16:14 UTC  

Thanks for showing me the importance of freedom of speech.

2018-09-04 14:16:20 UTC  

You guys are right, I am wrong.

2018-09-04 14:16:20 UTC  

Im saying its a misunderstanding

2018-09-04 14:16:26 UTC  

We're all about freedom of association, 100%.

2018-09-04 14:16:33 UTC  

Nothing else matters.

2018-09-04 14:16:41 UTC  

He disnt mean to say our whole thing is freedom of association

2018-09-04 14:16:45 UTC  

Democracy? Nope. Can do without it.

2018-09-04 14:16:50 UTC  

It's our whole thing.

2018-09-04 14:16:58 UTC  

I read it as him saying its part of our beliefs

2018-09-04 14:17:08 UTC  

Na our whole thing is freedom of association.

2018-09-04 14:17:15 UTC  

Why r u like this

2018-09-04 14:17:15 UTC  

It's right there, first principle written out.

2018-09-04 14:17:16 UTC  

~~True actually fuck democracy~~ im not making a good case for myself here

2018-09-04 14:17:18 UTC  

lol

2018-09-04 14:17:45 UTC  

I mean the first principle is individual rights, does freedom of association not come under that?

2018-09-04 14:18:00 UTC  

If freedom of association is 'our whole thing' then why is the UK banning anyone from their page that is even vaguely identitarian?

2018-09-04 14:18:00 UTC  

If not, I'm happy to be corrected

2018-09-04 14:18:13 UTC  

what page sorry

2018-09-04 14:18:15 UTC  

facebook?

2018-09-04 14:18:18 UTC  

Or why is Jon Wong being labeled as sympathetic to the alt-right for hanging with GI?

2018-09-04 14:18:26 UTC  

facebook then

2018-09-04 14:18:32 UTC  

because facebook is gay and cancer

2018-09-04 14:18:33 UTC  

'Bullocks' on your FoA.

2018-09-04 14:18:38 UTC  

This argument seems like tone policing to me

2018-09-04 14:18:44 UTC  

Practice what you preach, pastor.

2018-09-04 14:19:00 UTC  

oh right i speak for all the UK i forgot

2018-09-04 14:19:00 UTC  

Freedom of association also means freedom to disassociate

2018-09-04 14:19:06 UTC  

and all the UK liberalists

2018-09-04 14:19:33 UTC  

and all the people in charge of the facebook in the group even though I have no leadership role and am not on facebook

2018-09-04 14:20:50 UTC  

And thus begins another day long argument, many battles shall be fought and countless brain cells shall be lost. Who shall win? Hell if I know...

2018-09-04 14:21:09 UTC  

Well, it is 'our whole thing'.

2018-09-04 14:21:17 UTC
