    Sorry, but the criminal facing about a hundred federal charges in the US hand-picked the court that says Freedom of Speech doesn’t apply to you because you might be a:

        I guess the idea is that restricting access to a backback with “I have a bomb” is a violation of Free Speech. Which causes those people that think everyone wants to talk about politics to come out the woodwork.

          It’s okay to be privileged and out-of-touch, that’s the point of Freedom… But do you really think any of us want to talk about politics? Outside of violence, that’s literally the only way anything changes in this country.

          • Why are my wages so low? Rich people, and their choice to exert disproportionate influence. How do we fix it? Politics.
          • Why does my apartment/house cost so much? Rich people, and their choice to exert disproportionate influence. How do we fix it? Politics.
          • Why does healthcare in this country cost so much? Rich people, and their choice to exert disproportionate influence. How do we fix it? Politics.
          • Why are we knowingly ruining the environment for ourselves and future generations? Rich people, and their choice to exert disproportionate influence. How do we fix it? Politics.
          • Why is education out of the reach of many working Americans? Rich people, and their choice to exert disproportionate influence.

          And so on. You can ignore it, or you can help the people that do the actual work in this country…

            These discussions are certainly worth having… Just not on a funny chess meme where the audience probably already agrees with your views. You aren’t going to change society by spamming to online message boards.

        Yep, it’s related. If you live in the US, you could literally lose the right to put ::image:: on your backpack, or anywhere else.
