They say the US has free speech, but to what extent is this true in 2022?
I graduated from GSB, live in San Fran, am left on most things, but find that it’s extremely easy to be ostracized for having any opinion even slightly against the “woke left.” Beyond the obvious ostracization online, it’s extremely true in social circles / gatherings if even a slight opinion is expressed that swings towards the right. Funny though how many of the moral high ground proponents also engage in NIMBYism.

It’s hilarious how right the left has become

Ultimately, the left is right of the middle when you consider how right the middle is to the left, especially when compared to Europe which has more centrist-left, left-center, right-middle, and also more left, right, left, right, B, A, select, start.

Yes people, everyone knows that free speech in the constitution is specifically referring to the government not interfering with our speech but free speech as a society principle is what OP is referring. We used to believe that it was better to argue our sides instead of shut the other viewpoint down.

AD1 Yeah when “fascism” is defined as everything you don’t like.

People don’t agree with you all the time on all the things. That’s life. Freedom of speech has nothing to do with that. Selecting who you talk to about ideas you care about is about judgment.

I live in SF and noticed it’s part of a dominating culture here - but if you stay aware you’ll find the people who aren’t going to shut you down for disagreeing with them. in the end it’s still a transplant city and people come in w a variety of viewpoints

Do I push more for the person I want or will I cause an issue with the hiring manager? How do I get her to see this person’s value?
