I recently got kicked from a group for screaming at engineers who worked at arms manufacturers. After I got kicked someone (who had been telling me to stfu) said that they actually agreed with me but disagreed with the rudeness and the ‘harassment’ (sending one of the ghouls the video of the Pal Action comrades sabotaging a clean room and saying I hoped this happened to their place of work).

Point is, never underestimate the lengths liberals will go to make sure their beliefs don’t change anything.

The “etiquette” is another chain which is used to constrain, control and oppress others.

I keep coming back to this quote, emphasis mine:

The question of “free press” and “free speech” is not separable from the question of the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie versus the dictatorship of the proletariat. The idea of “political plurality” as such turns out to be the negation of the possibility of achieving any kind of truth in the realm of politics, it reduces all historical and value claims to the rank of mere opinion. And of course, so long as someone’s political convictions are mere opinion, they won’t rise to defend them. And so the liberal state remains the dictatorial organ of the bourgeoisie, with roads being built or legislation being passed only as commanded by the interests of capital, completely disregarding the interests of workers. Under regimes where political plurality is falsely upheld as a supreme virtue, the very notion of asserting oneself as possessing a truth appears aggressive and “authoritarian.”
