The hypocrisy of both political extremes

Post by Bidengirl » Thu Apr 08, 2021 9:55 am

When Facebook bans people for what they say, conservatives throw a fit, scream "cancel culture," and the usual suspects (Ben Shapiro, oddly Bill Maher, Rush before be died, Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, etc.) go on the offensive saying how Facebook is censoring free speech, then encourage people to boycott Facebook.

Then, liberals defend Facebook saying it's a private company and can do whatever it wants.

When a baker doesn't want to bake a cake with a message he disagrees with, liberals believe this is a "hate crime" and that this baker should be forced to go against his strongly-held beliefs. The usual suspects (Vice, TYT, MSM, etc.) say the baker is a bigot and should be shut down if he doesn't submit to violating his own standards.

Then, conservatives defend the baker saying he owns a private company and can do whatever he wants.

When Georgia passes laws intended to allowing only registered American citizens to vote, liberals scream "discrimination" and "disenfranchisement," move the MLB All Star game, and encourage people to boycott the state.

Then, conservatives double down on defending Georgia, and encourage people to boycott MLB.

See the pattern? The outrage is hypocritical in all of these cases.

Liberals want everyone to share their beliefs and punish those who don't.

Conservatives want everyone to share their beliefs and punish those who don't.

Here's a solution: As long as people aren't harming each other, let consenting adults do whatever they want.

Remember when democrats criticized illegal immigrants being put in cages?

They now simply call these cages "detention centers" and problem solved!
