Have you heard of Humberto da Silva yet?

No? You haven’t? Well, then you simply must watch this:

REAL free speech, being used for what free speech is supposed to be used for: exposing myths, lies, and pompous self-righteous twats.

He’s no Rex Murphy, and that’s fine with me.

    I don’t know how you Canucks do it, ‘Bina, but you always manage to produce clear thinking articulate people who are assertive enough to speak their minds and, in the process, destroy the wicked witch of the west types. Kudos to Humberto!

    I think it’s our water, Jim…either that, or it’s our public education system.

    Given the product of America’s education system, Glen Greenwald’s view of speech being an absolute right even knowing the Weimar Republic gave Hitler absolute free speech rights and how that turned out, I would have to agree with the education system theory.

    I’m not a free-speech absolutist, obviously. Being German does that to one…we are not being allowed to live Hitler down, and the idea that another country should be able to get away with letting a zillion Little Hitlers flourish unchecked just makes me sick. Free-speech absolutism is absolute shit. Absolute shit stinks absolutely!
