"Hitler had good intentions" good intentions don't matter when you use them as an excuse for ethic cleansing and genocide.

Exactly! He was PSYCHO. But , in his mind, it was all about his values and protecting his ideals.... How is that different? I am not debating good and evil. Just that both sides have the same underlying motive. To protect what they see as right. Even when they are wrong. So it's important to have free speech. I have posted this lost in the past but when they censord his album art, humanitarian,activist,artist,musician Perry Farrell made the cover this:

Hitler's syphilis-ridden dreams almost came true. How could it happen? By taking control of the media. An entire country was led by a lunatic… We must protect our First Amendment, before sick dreams become law. Nobody made fun of Hitler??!

The door swings both ways. And I don't trust any of you to dictate the thoughts of the world.

Unpopular opinion: You have the right to say whatever you want, but also expect to be called out for it, and if a place happens to have a set of rules, the said rules will be applied.
This place isn't anarchy, if you truly need your echo chamber of free speech, find another community, it's really not that hard.
You know, deleted posts have a 'show post' button that doesn't work...maybe that could be the solution?

In the legal sense of public forum, which means something completely different than what you think.
Also from Wikipedia, in the paragraph right above the one you quoted:
A public forum, also called an open forum, is open to all expression that is protected under the First Amendment. Streets, parks, and sidewalks are considered open to public discourse by tradition and are designated as traditional public forums.

TRUE! The right to protest has been attached to digital forums in the past as well! May hear more about this from the right wing now that twitter is censoring Trump. I might condone that, I am not sure who's more dangerous, Trump or the erosion of free speech

Alright guys. I think we went over that now, no need to dilute the sauce even further, it will only make everyone attack each others.



Back on topic:

Long distance relationship is easy with the right person.

Excellent. But only fair if said rules aren't totally skewed and arbitrary! Equal is not what is pleasing to someone. Then it's still total bullshit

Isn't the point of an unpopular opinions board to discuss things like this?
This isn't a hate speech vs free speech thread.
Sorry about that. Wrong thread if you guys want to keep going about it.

It was Ugly Free Speech vs Pretty Censorship really but that's fine.

I've got another one:

Winter is far better than summer :P

I just cannot stand the heat.

AGREE, bugs and heat , give me the cold!

Don't get me wrong, I understand the point and replies, it just wasn't the appropriate place or time to discuss ;)

Not only that, it's also far easier to get comfortable wearing more clothes.
Under heat, it's a pain to keep yourself cold, and being naked is usually not the best idea.

No worries. Just want it crystal clear that I an not pro hate speech, it's just a byproduct of free speech, which i am all for.

My AC is on full time and I am still sweating balls. Summer sucks

i''ve returned once again with another opinion i didnt know was unpopular: wireless charging is stupid, you cant use your phone while charging most of the time unless you do a weird pose, structural integrity is worse (as you cant have metal back+wireless charging) i wouldnt be so pissed if it wasnt a "feature" in most modern phones

if fat people are gonna work out to improve their health is a good thing that they have workout clothes

which one do you have? i had the 6 and switched to 6.1, love it but due to a very stupid accident i cracked the glass, touch sensor and screen still work perfectly though
TA-1033 to be more precise, it's NOKIA 6.

I'm sad to hear that, but i couldn't break even the glass on my. perhaps your fell in some stupid way or on something sharp directly on center idk...
I literally slammed it multiple times on a concrete and nothing. Only one or two small dents.

Anyway, at least your works still haha that's cool!

1.- The Nintendo Switch is just another kind of Wii U.
2.- I really liked Mario's Missing. It's a nice game.
3.- Windows 7 is the best OS EVER.
4.- Why pay for something when you can get it for free?
5.- Waffles over any other kind of pancakes, except brownies.
6.- I can't trust people that wont start sentences with Capitals nor ends'em with a dot.
7.- The best Mario Kart ever is Mario Kart Wii.
8.- The best Mario Party ever is Mario Party 2.
9.- The best Mario game is Super Mario Sunshine.
10.- The best Zelda game ever is OoT.
11.- The best music genre is Trip-Hop and Lounge.
12.- I can't think of anything else, so I'm going to end this with: I'm funnier than you are.

Two of the three CDI Zelda games are actually awesome.
Link: The Faces Of Evil and Zelda: The Wand Of Gamelon, are astoundingly good. Ignore the lies perpetuated about these Nintendo-licensed adventures, although they aren’t strictly canonical, the sense of exploration and gradual empowerment (via Metroidvania-style item acquisition) is exhilarating. The Russian-made cinemas may have been low-quality, but the gameplay designs, music, and Monet-esque background art were all superb. Give them another chance and play with an open mind, since there are some great games trying to break out. Oh, and stay away from the third, top-down Zelda’s Adventure title – now that was dire.
