    What they say: 'Offensive speech is violence' What they mean: Our violence is no worse than your speech.

        I was saying this like 5 years ago. The reason people want to equate speech with violence is so they can justify violent "self defense".

        "I assaulted you for speaking therefore your speech incites violence therefore I am justified in using violence to prevent you from speaking."

        Yeeep. I can choose to not be offended or to avoid hearing said speech. I cannot choose if that bat swing that hit my ribs will hurt or not.

        What to take away from that is that these people will use any power in their grasp to oppress and destroy their political opposition.

        They’re not worried about the speakers. They’re terrified of the listeners.
