Milo Yiannopoulos is a far-right writer for Breitbart. In a previous speech he gave at a college, he spent some of his speech time publicly bullying and harassing a student. And due to controversy due to him, the student club hosting his next speech at UC Davis chose to cancel it. So clearly all radical feminists would celebrate the cancellation of his spee—

Oh.
The LGBT Person of the Year can't talk about cutting off penises in bastions of academic enlightenment?
WTF?
I'm worried about college students' willingness to shut down free speech by no-platforming and protesting.
You absolutely have the right to disagree with an opposing side's position, but you don't have the right to SILENCE that side.
Lots of SJWs often have a similarly one-dimensional worldview except in theirs the 'good' and 'bad' sides are reversed.
Why do they need to shut down free speech tho?
I agree. There are many better ways to deal with ideas with which you disagree. Shutting people up because you don't like what they say has no place in a free society. Even if the person is a professional troll.
Watching videos like this, this and this while e.g /r/socialism high-fives and downvotes anyone suggesting maybe this is bad for free speech just cements for me the extent to which much of "the left" in this country has lost it's fucking mind.
I almost feel like it's time for an official 'Revocation of Small-L Liberalism Badge' ceremony. This is straight up authoritarian mob justice. This is not how to build a free and tolerant society, it's how to utterly destroy that society. I am just so disgusted that this sort of violent intolerance has become normalized in the very part of the political spectrum normally tasked with holding these forces at bay.
There still are people that are critical of him, but still for supposedly "radical feminists," I'd expect...well, radical feminism.
