@dziblatt The idea of Militant Democracy is disgusting. Basically, you Outlaws free speech Luckily, America has a Constitution that prevents such blatant attempts at control. Nobody could be trusted to manage what speech is an isn't allowed. And you're a professor? Really? 27 views · 3 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

You are clueless and that because you have useless degrees that solve nothing 60 views · 7 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →
