All of a sudden, you’re behaving yourself. Hmm, why could that be?

I’m not doing anything different. I’m still in the Pit. Still asking questions that I want answered. Still participating in other threads if they interest me and if what I want to say hasn’t already been said 10 times. My friendly advice thread backfired, not surprisingly, so I don’t have too much more interest in that.

The funny thing Helena330 is I actually do behave. People just like to call me a racist, nazi, misogynistic \_\_\_\_\_phobe because I am vociferous about freedom of expression. I also don’t believe people should be assaulted for wearing a hat. That makes me evil. Muhahahaahah. There, have an evil laugh.

No, they call you that because you’re a racist, nazi, misogynistic, odious asshole.

Get fucked, you worthless dog piling sack of shit. There’s no fucking point to posters like you whatsoever. Also, you’re the one lying openly about other posters. I’m the guy calling you out on it. Guess what, chucklefuck, that makes you the troll, not me.

**octopus** isn’t a Nazi; he’s just been frequently willing to handwave away fascist behaviors by Republicans even when they’re straight out of the Nazi playbook, but has accused Antifa of being “the real fascists” for behaviors that don’t hold a candle to what the right-wing are doing. Which is why he’s considered a disingenuous asshole. That, and his claims that we’re persecuting him because of “freedom of expression” rather than just holding him accountable for things he’s actually said (which is _so unfair_).

In other news, it looks like [someone’s spending a month in the drunk tank to sober up](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=886570). He also doesn’t appear to be much of a fan of **octopus**.

There’s a difference between defending someone’s right to speak, and defending their opinions and actions.

Christ, another well-meaning idiot who is never going to experience the consequences of his intellectually purity. It’s easy for a rich white guy to dismiss “hate speech”.

So-called ‘hate speech’ far too often is nothing of the sort. Eve when it is hateful, it’s better for people to have freedom instead of the state or a mob tolerated by the state having the power to violently suppress freedom of expression.

1. Buy a history book.
2. Read it.

OK, but where does “sitting at the table with them” begin?
