The NAZIS of the American Left

.

Note that they call Milo Yiannopoulos, who is himself gay, “transphobic.”

Transgenderism is NOT an accepted classification. Many mental health professionals continue to view it as a mental illness. As Milo notes in an article, “In fact, trans campaigners are insistent that it remain classified as a disorder, whatever the euphemistic language now used in diagnostic manuals, because without disorder status the disproportionately low-income trans sufferers wouldn’t have a case for state-funded surgery.”

Here’s the horrific thing about this anti-free speech campaign. Freedom of Expression means that Nazis, Communists, pro-gay and anti-gay have every right to their views and access to the platforms from which to express them.

That last part has been under attack by anti-1^st Amendment forces for decades now.

NO ONE owns, or CAN own the platforms of expression. That is, our newspapers, TV and radio stations exist by right of THE PEOPLE. The government doesn’t have ownership because the government is bared from such ownership by our Bill of Rights. What about the shareholders of those various entities, they, as individuals, have no right to bar views they deem “offensive,” because their existence is by permission of ALL the people...pro-gay, pro Nazi, pro-Communist and anti-gay. In that regard, the media has no right to filter (censor) ANY views, no matter how “offensive,” or “bizarre.”

So, ironically enough, it is those opposed to Milo Yiannopoulos speaking on that campus, who are acting in complete accordance with strict Nazi principles. It is ONLY Authoritarian thugs, Nazis, Stalinists and Maoists who oppose freedom of speech for ALL.

The ANTI-Free Speech Left

Incredibly enough, from the looks of the aftermath of Milo Yiannopoulos’ visit to Rutgers University, it was a resounding success! After all, the students who so vigorously protested his right to speak sought “group therapy” sessions in the wake of that speech (SEE: http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2016/02/18/rutgers-students-hold-group-therapy-session-after-milo-yiannopoulos-visit/)

When Breitbart Tech editor Milo Yiannopoulos visited Rutgers University recently, his visit was greeted by fascistic protests that sought to silence him, as they have at other locales. (SEE: https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2016/02/19/student-protests-and-university-cancellations-follow-milo-yiannopoulos-speaking-tour)

What a far cry from the late 1960s Leftist movements that defended, among other things, "Free speech for fascists."

YES, every view has an innate "right to be heard."

In disagreement, we can only offer up more and different information....NEVER seeking to suppress information. For instance, Communism has correctly been defined as "economic terrorism," but that DOESN'T justify the silencing of Communists.

Breitbart reports, “One student at the event told the Targum that they “broke down crying” after the event, while another reported that he felt “scared to walk around campus the next day.” According to the report, “many others” said they felt “unsafe” at the event and on campus afterwards.

“It is upsetting that my mental health is not cared about by the University,” said one student at the event. “I do not know what else to do for us to be heard for us to be cared about. I deserve an apology, everyone in this room deserves an apology.”

A number of organizations were at the event to offer support to the poor, traumatized students. These included Psychiatric Services, the Office for Violence Prevention and Victim Assistance, and the Rutgers University Police. However, as far as we know, none of the protesting students were institutionalized, arrested for vandalism, or for assaulting the peaceful attendees of Milo’s talk with red paint. 

In the past, Leftists actually physically fought for their warped, twisted views, I think it’s progress that the very best this new generation can seem to do is cry over them.

From here, that appears to be a good thing.
