You must be a democrat.

Hell no! I’m just a conservative who hates on women, minorities and wants to ban books (halal censorship)

But if my fellow liberals don’t stand up for freedom — for everyone — we won’t have a leg to stand on as conservatives try to tear it down. When we adopt the tools of the censor, everybody loses.
That’s the danger: hypocritically opposing conservatives rather than doing so while firmly in the right.

Lefties will never be in the right. That’s why they are lefties.

No matter what side anyone is one, there must be blanket protection to express offensive views, protection to express offensive beliefs, and protection to use offensive words.
It’s only when there’s a call to action that it is a danger, but opinions and beliefs have never harmed anyone, only actions.
