When 90% of the town hall speakers are spewing identity politics, it is paid shillery.


i like how you morons suggest that it's easy to indoctrinate liberals with the media and colleges, then turn around and claim u have to pay them.

its almost like you're not consistent, or something.

stupid long URL.... w/e

Presents an interesting free speech debate. Are permit requirements a thinly veiled tool to suppress the freedom of speech or proper paperwork for the liability issues of police who must be present for potentially violent events? This group for example may find it difficult to hold a protest anywhere given their negative PR. If a group can't protest anywhere in the US legally isn't that a restriction of free speech?

On the other side of the coin im sure they could get a permit somewhere, it just wouldnt be in a place that it has the same impact. That's personally what i think, much like Ben Shapiro or Ann Coulter going to Berkeley the location is no coincidence, they seek out inflammatory target locations to get free press.

Godhand Shapiro going to Berkeley doesnt infringe on your freedom.

nor did any part of my post suggest he does. im simply making a comparison between two groups of people seeking out the most inflammatory location they can for an event for free press. I have my personal tinfoil theories about these people wanting the events to get cancelled to further their "leftists are anti free speech" agenda, but that's a tangent topic really.

There's a reason that every conservative talking head in America has planned a speech/debate/book reading/etc at one college in America and no other. It's been made a battleground. The issue comes in when the left denies what goes on there and the right implies that's a consistent problem elsewhere, while not visiting elsewhere to prove it because it hurts their pocket book. Berkley is just the sight of the country's largest circle jerk. Conservatives who attend there or drive down for rallies are just antagonists, to my knowledge there's nothing there that cant be found with similar or better accreditation at other fine in state colleges. When i hear the title "president of the Berkley Republicans" i can instantly identify the kind of person that person is, an antagonistic snot who likes getting into it with sjws.

i dont dislike ben shaprio at all. I haven't missed a single one of his podcasts in months, since before Obama was in office afaik.

I dislike Ann Coulter, but honestly thought she held her own on Comedy Central roasts.

I dislike the far left that infests Berkley, but recognize i'd rather give them a safespace to permeate their failed ideas in than let them hold a higher % on each campus in the region. It also localizes professors with the worst ideologies. I'm not for segregation, but in this case its helpful.

I dont even dislike that right winged talking heads do this, its smart business. but when i present this as the fact it is i usually get "ok left tard you're wrong, every college campus in america IS BERKLEY. and its just a coincidence right wingers go there to start rallies that ANTIFA turns into riots every week" or some similar sentiment.

Assault and battery signifies mental illness. However since the crimes benefit you, you make hyperbolies about people you hold genuine hatred for
