Ben Shapiro’s speech at UC Berkeley has brought about plenty of backlash and triggering, and here’s a chant that’s beyond ironic:

Excuse us?

Read this slowly.
It makes no sense. https://t.co/t68SdCHnGw

It doesn’t even make sense when read quickly.

If speech is violent, shouldn't they be silent? https://t.co/w9sHyvxDei

Good point. Too much to hope for though.

Do these idiots hear and understand the words they are chanting? https://t.co/p8bwZBP6Ku

Nah, probably not.

Apparently these students have never had a logic class. https://t.co/RdxwtMNuhD

It must not be a requirement at Berkeley.

“Speech is violent.” Fucking cretins https://t.co/VhhVkD9bU9

I'm guessing their parents didn't teach them the sticks and stones rhyme. https://t.co/JmLKPzMGEF

If you want to break their tiny little brains, ask what gives them the right to say that. https://t.co/veMU2UHrXf
