For YEARS liberals bashed conservatives for perfectly legal speech, the whole "freedom of speech isn't freedom from consequences" thing. And now they make statements on how their political enemies should be killed and claim free speech and act surprised when people call them out on it.
In my opinion, its actually perfectly fine to wish death upon officials and oligarchs and other powerful people if you really dislike what they are doing. I know I wake up every morning hoping my states retarded democrat governor had a heart attack in his sleep. If you aren't making a direct, real threat, then its just voicing your dissatisfaction.
But after years and years of being told we cant say or think certain things and if we do we will face "consequences" like losing our jobs and livelihoods, it feels good to go after people for the exact same thing. Most of these redditors wont be found guilty of a crime, but I would not lose any sleep if they were doxed and reported to their jobs and fired. It would be very entertaining to see redditors get fired and/or arrested for saying retarded shit on reddit.
