PayPal CEO Admits the SPLC Informs Its Decisions on Banning People for Their Speech
PayPal should be free to do whatever it wants with its business. That includes blocking access to customers for whatever rhyme or reason it deems relevant. Partnering with the Southern Poverty Law Center to identify who to block or ban, however, is not be such a great idea.
Liberal Whites Commit More “Microaggressions” (Because They Can’t Help It)
Microaggressions, like hate speech, are a made-up thing. Crafted in the forge of liberal identity politics. These provide no real-world benefit to society. They do not improve relations, elevate equity or foster inclusion. They do the opposite. Microaggressions magnify stereotypes and inject them into our consciousness. Media and culture catalyze our sensitivity to these triggers. The result is … Read more
State to Check 3-Years of Social Media History Before You can Buy a Firearm?
How does this sound? You want to purchase a firearm. You fill out your form and then wait while local authorities perform a 3-year review of your online/social-media history. Their job is to make sure there is no disqualifying hate speech in there someplace. Sounds Progressive. According to Newsweek, Senator Kevin Palmer is currently working on legislation that … Read more
FBI Report: Hate Crimes Plummet Under Republicans in ‘Too White’ New Hampshire
Regular readers will know that I do not believe in either hate speech or hate crime as legal concepts. Any motivation, in the context of hate crimes, comes loaded with bias and opens the enforcement mechanisms in society to justify persecutions contrary to the purported purpose of adding “hate” to crime in the first place. … Read more
Every Tyranny Works This Way, Ours Will Be No Different
Remember the left’s dopey NOH8 campaign? Celebrities, Progressive thought Leaders, dopey politicians, and sheeple lined up to get their picture taken with the “NOH8” narrative logo? People who ignore, excuse, or justify the violence that would amount to a hate crime when perpetrated on people with whom they disagree. To them, premeditated violence (any violence, actually) is acceptable against people whose … Read more
At least I use my real name….
All of us who blog at GraniteGrok expect comments on the things we write, hoping to engage folks in thinking, in discussion, in exchanging ideas. There is only one rule at GG and that is whatever we write – and whatever commenters post – must be family friendly. That means, if your children – or your mother, for that matter – came across GG, they should be able to read anything posted and not be offended. Perhaps they might not agree with what each of us writes, but they should never be offended by bad language or offensive images.
So, as I’ve begun blogging with a bit more frequency, I seem to have caught the fancy of one of GG’s long-time commenters who goes by the handle ‘IWKAGGP’, or as ‘he’ has come to be revealed, ‘Hunter Dan’ who purports to be a school teacher. I’m taking him at his word that he is male but for whatever reason, he seems to have a real problem with me, and not just with what I write. From “IWKAGGP –
“You can’t burp a zygote. You can’t put diapers on a zygote. You can’t breastfeed a zygote. You can’t potty train a zygote. Your comparison is “apples and oranges.”” To “IWKAGGP – Her hair looks different in every picture”.
Thank the good Lord he didn’t pick up on my last year’s little Prada shoes!
Encountering ‘Tea-Baggers’ On the Path To Restoring Civility to Concord
Is there any limit to the number of dumb things a Democrat candidate for the NH House can do or say–or claim to stand? And how come, every time I try to walk away from this guy, he keeps dragging me back? Yes, I am referring to William Hudson Connery III, who since having stumbled … Read more
Yesterday was Chick-Fil-a day! And a hateful CFO is getting canned?
Update: Yes, for the hate filled rant below, Adam Smith is no longer the CFO at Vante. Thanks to the commentors for confirming it! “Always tastes better when it is full of hate!” All the way down to DC, I kept hearing how Conservative folks have been flocking (pun intended) to Chick-Fil-A outlets to support … Read more
