This has been a rallying cry for conservatives for so long, but...nobody on the left is advocating for laws limiting speech. In fact it's only the right that's doing so (look at how Trump sues everyone that says a bad thing about him).
All instigated by Professor Dipshit, nonetheless.
For what it's worth, Paulie420 is definitely not a "lefty".

I'm going to regret posting this. Ugh.
If we want to get s00per accurate, I write left handed, and "lefty" was for much longer a term describing people that do that, rather than lean one way in politics. :)
Its absolutely hilarious and astonishing that in less than a dozen messages, we've gone from the subjective offensiveness of the word "faggot" to "Trump sues everyone".

I see that more as "abusing the legal system" than advocating for new laws, but I also get your point re: Trump and conservatives. That
said, there were lefties advocating for persons to be removed from
social media and to be silenced in other ways just because those
lefties didn't like how the other party was exercising their freedom
of speech.

Hello fellow left handed person! I feel like I'm an odd ball because I also use the mouse with my left hand. It seems like most people
left/right handed still use themouse with their right hand anyway.

Speaking of left handed folks. However I do have a question;
I believe that can opening corporations discriminate against left
handed folks.
like to make attempts at writing with my left hand so i can develop
some muscle memory for riding switch stance and regular when i'm
skating.

I never though tit was odd until back in my 20s when I started an office job, my project manager came over to use my computer and was baffled at the mouse placement.
"If the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body,
then only left-handed people are in their right mind."
I throw left-handed, use a fork or spoon left-handed. When I played
baseball as a kid and young adult, I batted right-handed and later
learned to bat both. When doing yard work, I rake or sweep either way.
But I am definately politically not a "lefty' either.

Were left handed mice always
available for you? Or was that not
something that was introduced later
on?
Meaning, were you using the mouse
buttons backwards with your left
hand at first? It looks like
nowadays they made some pretty nice
ergonomic left handed mice,
though.. So all those years you
suffered, now you can get pampered!
;)
Oddly enough, my Mom is right handed, but uses her mouse with her left hand... It's a little confusing to use her laptop!
I've actually never owned a left handed mouse before! I just use a
regular one with the buttons in the same layout as a right handed mouse.
(So "left click" is actually "right click").
As an adult, I learned how to write a bit with my right hand for fun and
one cool thing I've learned I can do with that is write with both hands
at the same time. It has to be the same word/sentence/etc though.. Still
a fun little trick!
I write and use silverware left handed. I can swing a bat and kick with both (self taught, was right handed with these two originally), but I can't and never could throw left handed at all. Right is definitely my strong side, but left (where it can be used) is way more steady and accurate.
I'm right-handed, but years ago when I used to play pool/billiards more often than I do now, I practiced left-handed shooting, and now I can
shoot pool with both hands. I figured that was easier than trying to
contort myself over the table just to make certain shots right-handed.
:)

You've got it all wrong - you're supposed to shoot right handed, lose, up the stakes, then say "Oh, I forgot, I'm left handed!", then proceed to clear the table.

Yeah, he purposely doesn't make it known what the names/addresses ar
e"his BBSes", which makes me think they don't actually even exist. H
doesn't even post from them. <SHRUG>
He doesn't? I thought I've seen a lot of his posts with a tagline
saying bbses.info, which I thought was something he runs.
Uh-huh. Can you connect to it?
not without the pw, faggot :D
I fully agree. But trying to tell that to people who post that stuff
can be pointless sometimes.. They tend to argue "but, free speech!"
There is so much bullshit in "free speech" rights when articulated by disappointed liberal globalists who tend to tell you "there is one
world to share.. say what you want just stay politically correct".
And that "political correctness" connected to "free speech" just
doesn't cling!
