I had someone steel this and change “butts” to “Christian” and weirdly enough, lengthen my skirt. Kept the flame boots, but no short skirts.

Sir please don't edge the dog.
The dog has already edged.
~ edge all of the good boys ~
💀 lmao thanks for the new reaction pic
Too many people would change their minds based on what the sign says.
Does you reaction change if the sign read: "Black Lives Matter" or if it read "Back the Blue"?
Or one that says "Trans women are women" vs "trans women aren't women"?
Or "pineapple on pizza is ok" vs "pinapple on pizza is the work of the devil"?
We must not be tolerant to intolerance is the basis for me.
Tolerance is not a moral precept, it's a peace treaty
Fantastic read on this. Reader view worked for me.
Thank you for that. Really informative and a fun read.
Honestly, the first thing that I thought about was what if the sign had a slur word. Sure freedom of speech means say what you wanna say, that doesn't mean people aren't gonna sock you in the face.
The problem with free speech is probs that what people are really fighting over is who gets to control and define what "free" speech is. Only in an anarchist society would free speech really be as you described - say what you want, but be prepared to face the consequences of your words (and actions). Without the protection of government and socio/economic hierarchies, bigots wouldn't feel quite as invincible while they spew hate and oppression.
I think I’m still of the mind that “intent to incite violence” is the line. And even that can be crossed when the government needs to be overthrown.
But I could be convinced otherwise
Violence is extremely useful and will be the only tool you have left if you want to stop climate change or protect yourself+your social network from the effects of capitalism.

Stephen Fry on being offended.
Note, Mr Fry is a gay man and has championed gay rights. His very existence is offensive to backwards conservatives. This quote often gets shared without any context.
what year is this, 2015?
That’s hysterical!
Of course they had to lengthen the skirt 😂
Let's replace the word with "N*****" and see if you still feel clever
The point still stands, in the minutiae you're addressing. People post absolute garbage opinions on a regular basis, and are free to do so, as long as their platform allows it. This doesn't go into the consequences of pissing off a lot of people, but you're still free to do it.
The point does not stand. I don't think any set of rules that sees "N***** N***** N*****" as acceptable speech should be respected, nor any person who thinks that way.
I agree with the spirit, but I disagree with what the point of the comic is - it's not trying to make a point about respect per se, just about freedom of speech. Even if you wouldn't be a part of a community that allows hate speech, if you encounter it "in the street" so to speak - there's just nothing you can do.

Let's replace some of the words in your comment to "I am a pooopoo head and I eat poopoo", and see how do you feel then. Bet pretty stupid, huh?
Excellent rebuttal.
