The 1st amendment says I’m allowed to post this.

Just to prove that freedom of speech is good, I regularly cause mass panics at large gatherings. I have watched mothers abandon their children trying to escape a building because they think there’s a terrorist inside and it’s like, yeah. Fuck terrorists, never forget. God bless America.

No one actually believes in freedom of speech, leftists are just honest about it. The bourgeoisie certainly don’t, their usage of the rhetoric is entirely cynical; the first law restricting anti-war speech in the US was passed only 9 years after the first amendment was written. Chuds think they believe in freedom of speech, but head on over to a chud forum, post something they don’t like, and watch how quickly you get banned.

In the US you are allowed to say whatever you want, provided it has no effect

Fred Hampton should have merely explained he was doing freedom of speech when the FBI gunned him down.

Same with MLK, honestly. Just gotta inform the FBI you are merely speaking. They will stand down.

caping for freedom of speech when it never applies to leftists anyways

The secret police do not care about the law. They will kill you regardless, because you are a leftist. Defending :freeze-peach: only defends the rights of fascists, who the secret police agree with.

I’m realistic as I can be about censorship in a socialist project. Especially the beginning stages. And, as a member of a ML vanguard party, you never know what will happen. I might not even live through the revolution.
