Contradictions in Action

A big contradiction in people working to criminalize speech: they never seek to arrest themselves. They claim individuals should be arrested for speech they imagine intolerant and harmful to social cohesion, yet they and their allies are the most intolerant and destructive people on earth. So why aren't they arresting themselves? The absence of cognitive dissonance boggles the mind.

Over 70,000 individuals signed an internet petition to have Katie Hopkins arrested, yet Google searches reveal Ms. Hopkins has been called c*nt, b*tch, and dozens of other slurs thousands of times. Why aren't the guardians of "tolerance" and "social cohesion" seeking to have Ms. Hopkins' critics arrested for abusive ad hominem attacks? (Note: I know almost nothing about Ms. Hopkins or what she said or what kind of person she is. I'm here to defend consistency and free speech, things every ethical person should do.)

The establishments demonize any public figure for any trivial association almost anyone slurred as a "white supr*mecist," yet sees nothing wrong with almost every public figure being devoted to antiwhite supremecism.
