Yes and they report my questions and truthful answers how sad.

Liberals are more emotion driven.

Right wing political views are often hate speech, not ideals.

I just got blocked by some right-wing Rev Wright guy for asking to point to a "specifc" policy that he was referring to (as opposed to making broad and wild claims).

Because some people don't like to read racist, homophobic views on their social media and hey, it's their choice.

Could it be that anybody who does not think like they do, is a radical? Of course they are assuming that they are always right which we know is i lot of dog poo poo.

Have been on here for 10 minutes answering questions.
Have been blocked three times by conservatives for not giving the answers they wanted.
I have blocked a few people who proved themselves to be exceptional annoying trolls but it is rare.

Because I ain't that 'mart.

It is a form of censorship. If that person blocks or unfriends, they are no longer heard and therefore are seen to be irrelevant.

The problem with that line of thinking however is, they fail to understand that politics is about discourse and difference. Hiding their detractors accomplishes nothing. It just makes us more determined to be successful.

EDIT: OH LORD, now cons are calling it censorship? lol...
