Posts like these are dangerous because there's simply not enough people that realize you're being facetious.

I'd be fine just getting the minute back of my life that I spent reading it. I don't think that reading off a list of contemptuous claims and insults is in any way productive, even when they are intended as satire. Are we not divided enough?

Did you read the article?
>> Censored Planet, however, uncovered that ISPs in Norway are imposing what the study calls “extremely aggressive” blocking across a broader range of content, including human rights websites like Human Rights Watch and online dating sites like Match.com.
Downvoting off-topic.

This year I've heard that both speech and silence is violence...so you can't win either way with some people.

I love how you're being downvoted for what is obviously and objectively true.
I'd wager that there's a not insignificant group of Americans that actually think hate speech is illegal (hint: it isn't).

Ironic given the context
> redemption
I'm actually in the confession booth right now, so consider my sins redeemed!
In seriousness, what do you find so horrible about this post? I thought it was fun.
