We should all be huge, fervent supporters of free speech, not merely so that we can say what we want, but so that our ridiculous enemies can say what they want.
Of course, a prime example is the Sydney Sweeney insanity that everyone has kept abreast of over the last week. She’s an attractive, white, cis woman who commits the dual sins of not being a mutant and not apologizing to the mutants. This makes her a Nazi in the eyes of the blubbery behemoths of the left.
Ugliness is part and parcel of Marxism, a crucial component since the ideology exists to defeat everything that is beautiful and good in the world. Its largely young female enforcers are particularly notorious for being unwanted, unloved, and unhot.
Sheesh, at least the mean girls in “Mean Girls” were pretty; this herd of despised daddy-issued nose-pierced blue-haired losers is totally making “retch” happen.
When I was actively lawyering, my most successful cases weren’t the ones where I made the case. They were the ones where the other side made my case for me. And that’s what the Democrat/left axis of mediocrity does. It makes our case for us. Let’s face it – the American people are completely alienated by those of us in the political sphere. They don’t necessarily want to listen to us patriots when we talk about how terrible the left is.
No, it’s a million times more effective to let the weirdos, losers, and mutations of the left tell normal people that themselves. And they do. All the time. It's like they can't shut up even when it makes tactical sense for them to do so. It’s quite remarkable and fascinating in the morbid way that video compilations of car wrecks are fascinating.
You look at some of the things that they say, and you scratch your head, wondering why anyone would ever think it was a good idea to say such things aloud or that saying such things might not lead normal people to, if charitable, consider you insane, and if less charitable, consider you a public menace.
The Democrats just spent about $20 million trying to figure out how to appeal to men. Instead of spazzing out over the ad of new nubile young Sydney arriving around a Mustang GT 350 (those of us of a certain age were all “Hey, could you move aside? I want to look at the car.”), they should have taken notes.
Normal people like attractive people. This is why Amy Schumer is not a star. Ditto Lena Dunham. And they don’t like weirdness. How many of you recently bought a Jaguar or bellied up to the bar for a Bud Light?
What the left told us is that they don’t want a world of coolness, beauty and fun, but of lameness, ugliness and bitter misery. Normal people don’t want to exist inside the psychodramas of Internet 20-somethings who have a half-dozen SSRI prescriptions but no boyfriends. Look at how the Dems are talking about illegal aliens.
They speak freely about them, and it helps us. Every time they take the side of some foreigner who snuck into our country and who they expect to be rewarded with squatters’ rights, welfare, and citizenship, they are telling normal people to pound sand. Every single normal person knows that if they color outside the lines, even a millimeter, the establishment will come down upon them like a ton of bricks, yet the Democrats can’t help but rub in their faces that their favored future constituents get a free pass.
Keep telling real Americans how foreigners are better Americans than us real Americans are. Please.
Senator Chris Van Hollen even thought it was a good idea to go have a margarita with an MS-13 gang scumbag involved in human trafficking and underage kiddie antics when he wasn’t busy beating up his wife.
Stop him from going to El Salvador to clink glasses with this scumbag? Hell no. Van Hollen, who’s dumb even for a senator, shouldn’t just have free speech; we America Firsters should subsidize it.
Nobody makes our case better than these people do. While he should be denaturalized and deported because he’s a communist and ineligible for American citizenship, we should zealously guard the right to speak of Zohran Mamdani.
Now, he’s probably going to win the New York City election because affluent, stupid New Yorkers and their trust fund kids are going to get him elected mayor. And while that will suck for New Yorkers, we’re not obligated to care more about their city than its residents do.
Instead, we should amplify his demands to defund the police, cheer whatever the hell queer liberation is, and suck up to dirtbag terrorists. The Big Apple is going to be a Poison Apple, and next fall, its Marxist/jihadi mayor is going to be the poster-commie for the Democrats in every congressional district outside the five boroughs.
Keep talking, Zohran! Never shut your stinking trap.
I’m not even going to get started on the Munchausen mommies and their supporters who loudly advocate for mutilating little kids to conform to delusions of gender dysmorphia. Nor do I have to point out the lunatics who celebrate their abortions. As we saw in Cincinnati, there are plenty of leftists who want to explain why it’s perfectly fine for large gangs of blacks to launch racial assaults on white people because the white people were asking for it. Yeah, go with all that stuff. It's going go over great with regular voters.
Please, keep exercising your right to free speech. Please.
Now, Democrats could use their free speech rights to do something smart. Some of them could use it to attack those even further to their left, but that’s not going to happen. The Democrats are too terrified of their own left wing and the social media swarms that will descend upon them if they say something that’s remotely not insane. Remember Rep. Seth Moulton, the Massachusetts twerp who gently, tentatively mentioned that maybe hairy ape XY folks shouldn’t be pummeling actual girls in girls’ sports?
He got nuked.
You would’ve thought he had made a jeans ad with a pun about genes and then invaded Poland. The left doesn’t believe in free speech. It believes in its speech, and it’s veto of anything else but the party line. It would shut our speech down in a second if it could – fortunately, the Founders were both wise and based enough to directly follow up the First Amendment with the Second. Britain is already in the process of doing that, having tossed away the common law traditions that made it great in favor of a vicious nanny, state fascism where its subjects will spend the rest of history using their inside voices lest the bobbies show up at their cramped, unair-conditioned flats.
But we have free speech here and it's working out great. Democrats can’t stop saying stupid things, and we should encourage it. The First Amendment is awesome – not just because we get to say what we want, but because those idiots get to say what they want.
