Good to see you oppose free speech. On a free speech site.

Popper's maxim: we must not allow free speech to those who will abuse it to advocate for the abolition of free speech.

Good to see you oppose free speech.

When did I say I oppose free speech?

"Don't worry, the university is powerful and wealthy, this protest by the filthy peasants will have no effect" is taking the side of the powerful. Siding with the enemies of free speech is not a free speech position.

Of course, you say this on a free speech website. Abusing freedom of speech to oppose free speech. That's the paradox of tolerance, in which tolerance should not be tolerated.

Who typed that out? It sure as hell was not typed out by me. Can you copy and paste what I said as opposed to making stuff up?

Of course, you say this on a free speech website.

Saidit also removes speech so it's not free speech. If Saidit was truly free speech there would be no pyramid of debate because all speech in all ways expressed would be welcomed.

Shalom
