Even when it is dishonest?
Yes, especially when it is dishonest.
My friend, when the blue hell did I ever say it should be "censored" or "suppressed"?
I'm merely being the sportsman here and making a point about dickish speech. Just because I think that it's something assholes do, doesn't mean I support the government limiting it.
I think douchebags are intolerable, but I would freak if the government made being one illegal.
I support the right to say the word "n", but I don't necessarily think it's a harmless word (for example).
You never said anything about censorship or suppression. But why bring up this topic at all if your intent is not in some way to discourage those forms of speech that you find to be "dickish"? You are, after all, concerned with "the problem with political discourse in this country", which I do not believe exists.
I understand that you intended your comments as mere observations, though. But when you post them on an internet forum, rumination and rhetoric become indistinguishable from one another.
