That's the first problem with the arguments around free speech.

2018-08-16 11:52:58 UTC  

People need to define it.

2018-08-16 11:53:25 UTC  

You aren't allowed to speak smack about my fiance in my home. Therefore, your free speech is curtailed.

2018-08-16 11:53:39 UTC  

You can't shout "bomb!" in a place. No free speech there either.

2018-08-16 11:53:43 UTC

2018-08-16 11:54:23 UTC  

A business newspaper won't publish my cartoons about sports. No free speech there either.

2018-08-16 11:54:57 UTC  

if a printer refused to print your newspaper despite your willingness to pay then this would be comparable

2018-08-16 11:55:12 UTC  

A printer doesn't have to print your newspaper.

2018-08-16 11:55:14 UTC  

your house is not vital to public discourse

2018-08-16 11:55:16 UTC  

so no problem

2018-08-16 11:55:20 UTC  

It's not your right to get their business.

2018-08-16 11:55:26 UTC  

@Jerm, I agree, you will chase someone out your home and that is your right, but you should not be able to fine/arrest someone for offending your fiance

2018-08-16 11:56:08 UTC  

if printers had their own TOS, and refused to publish the Rapport because they were carrying one of your cartoons

2018-08-16 11:56:16 UTC  

Let them.

2018-08-16 11:56:47 UTC  

Like I said, it's not your right to get somebody's business.

2018-08-16 11:56:50 UTC  

back to work for me....

As a matter of interest, when last have you changed your mind on an issue?

2018-08-16 11:56:56 UTC  

any issue

2018-08-16 11:56:58 UTC  

Plenty.

2018-08-16 11:57:12 UTC  

i think this convo is getting out of hand.....

2018-08-16 11:57:26 UTC  

That's why I'm not longer in the mainstream anymore. 😂

2018-08-16 11:57:31 UTC  

no longer*

2018-08-16 11:57:56 UTC  

tone is lost in text....

2018-08-16 11:57:57 UTC  

I forgot what it feels like to work since discord

2018-08-16 11:58:08 UTC  

not trying to be rude

2018-08-16 11:58:20 UTC  

I need to get back. I've done my quota of Discord for the week. haha

2018-08-16 11:58:52 UTC  

@Tom_Servo I know what you're saying. I speak better verbally. Watch my interview with Renaldo and you will see how I speak. I hate text.

2018-08-16 12:26:03 UTC  

Friends, please debate. This is why we are in this chat room. Remember that we're on the same side, albeit a few minor differences here and there.

2018-08-16 12:26:38 UTC  

We're like light going through a prism. We all slot into different beams of light, but all on the same side.

2018-08-16 12:35:48 UTC  

can one of you social media famous guys run a poll on who should be NPA, Dali or Thuli

2018-08-16 12:56:26 UTC  

I should be

2018-08-17 07:56:43 UTC  

@Jerm boer soek n plaas cartoon....love it!

2018-08-17 09:58:53 UTC  

a quick hit and run.

Do you think the media are empowering Afriforum in the same way they did Julius Malema ?

Even though they are being fairly one sided and critical - is the long term effect going to be an increase in support and donations?

Ultimately should Afriforum be wewlcoming this, and perhaps even leaning into it?

2018-08-17 09:59:26 UTC  

remember initial reporting on JM was very negative, only softened more recently

2018-08-17 10:12:10 UTC  

to me it feels the media criticizes Afrifrom a lot (in some cases even plays with words to make them look bad), so not sure how that empowers them?

2018-08-17 10:14:03 UTC  

i dont see that as empowering

Stream of Consciousness: Tonight I interview the author K.M. Breakey about his works, specifically his recent book, "Never, Never and Never Again". We will also be discussing the broad topic of crime in South Africa.

Hope to see everyone there!
