Taken Seriously

We here in America have to put up with a lot in the name of free speech. People like Kanye West and Nick Fuentes can spew their nonsense and poison nonstop. As much as we might want it to stop, we know that clamping down on such actors might make us look like hypocrites, since they have a right to their opinions, as incendiary and repulsive as they may be. We just have to learn to dismiss them and find a way to prove them wrong.

The trouble, of course, is that the platforms on which they operate are quite popular and far-reaching and a lot of people don’t dismiss them, and the cancer spreads, seeds are planted in receptive minds. Maybe our only hope is that those with a less fearful and paranoid world view can learn to be just as vocal, find their own megaphone.
