    *eye roll*

    me checking the dislike ratio on my new story

    Glad to know bigotry is still alive and well in this fandom.

    It's glad to see some of us didn't watch the same series as I did.

    So where I've been

    Okay, uh... how do I begin this? Well, I suppose I should start with the obvious. Yes, I've been distracted. If you follow me on Archive that should be obvious. And if you don't, you totally should btw. Yes, I'm shameless.

I don't know what prompted this, but I'll add my own two cents real quick.

People who go on and on about freedom of speech, in my own opinion, never have a fucking clue of what it actually means.

And people who complain about "political correctness" constraining their freedom of speech are just bigoted assholes who can't get with the times and accept that there are other people who matter besides themselves. :ajbemused:

Ok, what?

You can't say that! You can't say that!

Free speech is meant to protect unpopular ideas and their expression. If they were popular, they wouldn't need protection.

Trust me, neither of you want to know what prompted this. Site drama, really.

It involves Ayranne and.... yeah, it's a mess. Hopefully, this will all blow over in a few days.

Well...that’s very to-the-point.

In any case, Free Speech allows us to say what we feel is right...but also makes us take responsibility for what we say.
After all, criticism of free speech (Or whatever calls itself ‘free speech’) is, in itself, free speech in practice.
