This is pretty simple to me and a reflection of the system that was put into place here. Either people like something and upvote it or they don't and it never rises. But regardless of how you feel about what others should or should not talk about, this is not the place to tell others what they are allowed to discuss or like.

You personally may not like the recent discussion about Black Rifle Coffee but it is very apparent that somebody does, a lot of people actually. So if you are going to make a post telling other people what they can and can not discuss, are you sure you are in the right place? Because this feels very similar to what we left behind over at Reddit.

Great argument, that is exactly how arguments and discussion work.

Are you deranged? You start giving an Amway sales pitch about Mat Best when literally nobody had mentioned his name in the discussion.

yeah I personally am not attacking him, merely defending our right to discuss things as free Americans under our constitutional right to free speech. I'm a freedom of speech advocate, and as such I will continue express my thoughts about others attempting to restrict another American's speech regardless of the subject matter or people involved.

so then wouldn't you agree that we are constitutionally protected to disagree?

absolutely, but I find it troubling that you would want to disagree with freedom of speech.

i never said that at all, you did. Freedom of speech also includes those who disagree that bashing a company founded by a man who served 5 tours overseas in some 3rd world shitstain of a country for your right to have freedom of speech, only to have you cancel his hard work because of somthing he disagreed with that he probably doesnt even understand. Not everyone is on .win and not everyone, especially those who have seen 5 tours of war, are political.
