THAT GOOD OL' DOUBLE STANDARD

AutoAdmit Untouchable?

There is an extraordinary site called AutoAdmit that has up every sort of abuse you can imagine. It refers for instance to "Kike sluts" (an abusive term for Jewish women).

It is a discussion board for law students, much used, apparently, by students at some Ivy League schools. According to the WSJ, the postings on it cannot be touched because of First Amendment protection, even though comments on it have apparently damaged the reputations of some female students.

How come Christian, conservative or anti-immigration speech is constantly censored by universities but real abuse cannot be? Very strange. Apparently anything nihilistic and destructive is fine but anything Christian or conservative has to be hounded out of existence.




Leftists are Howling because they had to Respect the WRONG Minority

Conservatives are a minority in the Bay Area (San Franscico) and the following radio promo for a book disturbed them:

"In his new bestseller, Chris Hedges challenges the Christian Right and its dark ideology. He challenges their religious legitimacy and makes a compelling case that these zealots have merely found a mask for fascism in patriotism and the pages of the Bible."

So in keeping with Leftist principles of "sensitivity" and not making people "uncomfortable", the radio station pulled the ad.

Did Leftists applaud that application of their principles? No way! It is only SELECTED groups (selected by Leftists) that you have to be "sensitive" about.
