I didn't see any comments above yours calling for them to be taken down, just questioning what it's about.
Did you see the ones below it calling for violence, the establishment of martial law, and throwing people in prison for their political views?

The president has literally just said "we have to beat the hell out of radical left lunatics"

While we all most likely agree with that, don't sit here and try to claim the right does not have free speech.

And there have been two attempts on his life that we know of, probably more that were thwarted and we never heard about them. Conservatives have "free speech" but cannot speak freely without wearing body armor.

No, I stopped to reply to that particular comment & got back on with life more power to you if you read every single comment in a thread before replying to one person

Those people are tards, free speech is important specifically to protect speech people DONT like. It needs to be destroyed in the court of public opinion, not government imo

I can’t say whatever I want to at work, so why shouldn’t students be held to the same standard? It’s not about free speech, it’s about consequences for breaking company/University policy. Georgia Tech should have a policy against promoting radical ideologies that have been proven to incite violence/death.

are you fricking dense?

My point is we aren’t having our free speech infringed by the government, but by the left via threats of violence and murder.

If you still deny this I think you’re fricking retarded and can’t be helped and should just sit this entire convo out

I worked a gig at Tech's campus a few weeks ago. Nothing but noodle armed beta males and they/thems running around. Sad.

Yes... of course... It's conservatives with the baked-in persecution complex.

Zero percent change similar messages aimed at the left would be tolerated.

I'm long past allowing progressives to use my own values against me when they don't uphold them either.

I'm fine with the university cracking down on vaguely threatening language. They already do it to conservatives, what's the worst that's going to happen?

Make them hold progressives to the same standard.

Yes. It’s why it was intended. So the govt, which runs GA Tech, can’t suppress speech.

I thought that's what they were saying from the title, but looks like it's some group putting up little flyers promoting their shite organization. I guess it's refusefascism dot org.

From their website:

Refuse Fascism is led by a national leadership group and powered by a national network of volunteer local organizers and chapters. 

Our podcast, hosted by Sam Goldman, has forged relationships with leading scholars, activists, writers, and others on the nature and direction of 21st century American fascism and what must be done to defeat it. 

We collaborate with faith leaders, academics, artists, and grassroots organizations committed to defeating fascism in this country.
