What a weird thing to say. You're not like the other comfortable white men, that's what you mean right?

Belittling people does not make you superior. It makes you sound full of fear and resentment, which by the way is still not justification for pro-censorship positions.

Yes, and anyone who is pro-cars, is in effect pro-car accidents!

It is an example of speech that free-speech absolutism would permit. And example of the sort of view that I would not permit on a platform I am running. And yes, Twitter and most platforms ban it for good reason.

A great example of the way free-speech absolutists don't engage with the consequences of their views. Which is why I'm done here.

Thanks for pointing out that you are wrong in pretending that Twitter is governed by this "free-speech absolutism" strawman.

Calling normal people nazis doesn't mean normal people are nazis, it just means that you have a serious problem. It might also indicate, depending on how much control you want to exert on said normal people, that you are a totalitarian.

Cool! This was always allowed. At least, on platforms with freedom of expression.
Nice example of speech that is currently not allowed on Twitter.
