We’re Unravelling

Yes, the world has officially gone mad. First YouTube and Facebook imposed their “standards” for group-think. Then the role-playing gaming site RPG.net joined the community opposed to free speech with this announcement:

We are banning support of the administration of President Trump. You can still post on RPG.net even if you do in fact support the administration — you just can't talk about it here.

Most generous of them to at least let you think things you are not allowed to speak of. So they haven’t yet gone full 1984.

Then, as noted here yesterday, Ravelry, a crafting website community of knitters and crocheters, couldn’t wait to not be first to “ban support of Donald Trump and his administration.”

Somebody should remind the current crop of progressives that at one time “freedom of speech” was a core value of liberalism…and that it included freedom to speak things that they specifically don’t like, don’t want and don’t believe in. That’s what makes it “free,” free of your endorsement.

Progressives are seriously unravelling.

If they’re not careful they’ll come completely undone.
