OK...so let me get this straight...

Dunkin' Doughnuts pulls an ad because one of the actors appearing in it is wearing a scarf, and some shreiking harpie has a fever dream that it looks like a Kaffeiya...even though it looks nothing like a Kaffieya...

But Ford Motor company can openly and outright say in their ad that free speech should be denied to 14% of the population because of their beliefs and it is hailed as a victory for free speech?

huh?

Folks, you can say whatever you want to but don't cry and complain when people recognise it as cynically manipulative bullshit.

A woman wearing a scarf and drinking iced coffe is hate speech, but calling for 86% of the population to use their superior numbers to deny the other 14% their right to free speech is "free speech"...

...I call Bullshit!  (I can still do that, right?)

grumble.
