Soren Kierkegaard, the famous Danish philosopher, wrote, “People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.”
In light of the many protests concerning executive actions and policies from President Donald Trump and his new administration, it is becoming obvious that the liberal left has turned to name-calling and hate-speech because it is losing the battle of rational thought and debate.
They should stop the emotional outbursts and focus on reasonable dialogue or they will continue to further diminish their voting base and alienate even more thoughtful, hard-working American citizens. Take time to think first before speaking, whining or crying.
