What fresh hell is this? Oh, it’s only Berkeley:

We can’t go letting free speech be too free, right? We’ve got to make sure everyone feels “safe and respected.”

@nickdirks We need to recognize the broader social context that you're a two-bit totalitarian twat.pic.twitter.com/WzzPe71Xgv

@iowahawkblog @Popehat you can say anything you want as long as you agree with us.

@iowahawkblog @popehat "between free speech and political advocacy"? Political advocacy IS free speech & reason for #1A speech protections.

@iowahawkblog @popehat The dean at Berkeley doesn't know this? First-class education they're delivering up there.

No kidding.
People forget that Berkeley only has a reputation for "free speech" in the sense that they have made a habit of brutally repressing it.

The chancellor of UC Berkeley's mouth is where the Free Speech Movement goes to die.

"You have MISUSED your speech!" admonishes chancellor-dad, taking it away and depositing it in the trash. "NOW NO ONE CAN PLAY WITH IT."

Here's to incivility. It''s not for every occasion, but when it's called for, accept no substitutes.

Just one last question:
@iowahawkblog So, can I shout "broader social context" in a crowded theater or what?
