The American Civil Liberties Union says The Force, errr, First Amendment is with Sam O'Hara, filing a lawsuit on his behalf after he was handcuffed and detained after following National Guard troops in Washington, D.C. playing the Darth Vader theme from the Star Wars film franchise.
Fuck that bull shit, thats free speech baby.
Also I’ve seen the video and the.tik toker was annoying.
Why am I such a contrarian online?
shrug You’re allowed to be annoyed by anything you want, as long as you’re as clear as you were that “that’s free speech baby”.
The point of protests is to be annoying. Whether they want to be there or not, these National Guards are an occupying force. Annoying government officials is precisely what the First Amendment protects.
Exactly. The first amendment isn’t there to protect the speech that people like. And protests aren’t effective if you can just ignore them. The entire point of protesting is to be a problem that is big enough and loud enough that the lawmakers can’t just ignore it.
Being contrarian is more engaging.
No it isn’t.
That’s not an argument, it’s just contradiction!
Look, if I’m going to argue with you, I have to take up a contradictory position.
No, you don’t.
No, you’re the other guy
