>>21775006Speaking of hivemind, lets see how free your speech actually is. Let's say you have deep, sincere moral arguments against gay marriage. Nothing hateful, but a genuine opposition to it on moral or religious grounds. Grounds that you can articulate succinctly and without rancor. Go out on a public forum and under your own name post those feelings. And then start a stopwatch to time how long before you're called into HR, fired from your job, and blacklisted from employment in your field if you're anything other than blue collar or self employed. And even then it would still probably be tough.
The left is just as much a "hivemind" as anything else. The problem is, they've captured huge tracts of corporate management, HR, media, and government agencies. You're allowed to say whatever you want so long as it doesn't stray too far from the modern, lefty narrative about how the world should work. And this is a problem because leftists are weak and stupid. They absolutely should not be the gatekeepers of acceptable speech. And thankfully this appears to be changing. This last election has given me hope that people are finally done with this bullshit.
