    Probably in the sense that Limbaugh et al use when they say something offensive and then (after the backlash) backpedal by saying "it was humor!".

    That's an amazing lack of self-awareness in your criticism, but one expects that from posters here.

    Hoo, boy. You're equating supporting affirmative action and gay marriage with white supremacy. You are a fucking piece of work.

    Go on, attack and mock those who you don't agree with. Attack me all you want. It just shows your intolerance. Not that those who agree with you care that you are all intolerant. Intolerance is now the greatest virtue of the liberal mind, as long as it is in support of liberal ideology.

    It's amazing, isn't it, just how many conservative victims are on /. these days. Bonus points for whining about someone not tolerating your intolerance, and for whining about it in an intolerant way.

    And here I thought conservative ideology was that we should man up and not worry about hurt feelings or political correctness. Shows what I know.

    Freedom of speech isn't freedom from consequences of your speech, sweet cheeks. He's free to associate with a disgusting ideology that holds certain people inferior because of how they're born, I'm free to mock him for it. For that matter, I'm free to mock your ignorance.
