The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

All the NPC's have some programming along these lines. The 'logic' (programming logic, not argumentative logic, 'cause they don't do that) goes like this

-Orange Man bad
-Orange Man say things Orange Man People like
-Censor Orange Man so Orange Man People no hear

That's about it. But that's not where the left's censorship game begins or ends. No, what the left is doing is cranking up their little inimidation campaigns here and there to remind people that if they See Something And Say Something, they better believe there are consequences for that.

Because in our democracy, too much free speech is dangerous, amirite?

ASHBURN, Va. (7News) ' After 7News' exclusive reporting this week, two members of Congress wrote a letter to Loudoun County School Board Chair Ian Serotkin calling on him to launch a full investigation into the extent to which staff and associates of Loudoun County officials and school board members were involved in targeting parents.

Targeting parents? Wait, whut? For daring to speak up about their kids' education? Can't have that, says the left.

ASHBURN, Va. (7News) ' Some Loudoun County residents were threatened, and one even lost his job, after a social media group allegedly worked to dox them after the residents spoke out at school board meetings, according to documents a whistleblower sent 7News.

'I was taken back when I received a phone call from the sheriff's department ' a deputy ' saying I was being threatened online,' Loudoun County resident Mark Winn told 7News.

The online threats happened in a Facebook group called the 'Loudoun Love Warriors.'


Yup. To the left, their Violence if Free Speech. The Normals' Free Speech is Violence. Therefore, in NPC programming, violence from the right (opening your mouth and saying something) can and must be met with a consequence from the left (you lose your job or maybe get your head broken).

After all, that's how democracy works, right fellas?

After Winn spoke at a school board meeting in December 2022, one person in the 'Loudoun Love Warriors" said they wanted to find Winn's employer and hold the company accountable until he is fired. That same person and others wrote:

'Mark Winn. I'm gonna find his employer.'
'And holding that company accountable until he is fired.'
'Lets make him unemployable by love or by force.'
'Wish I had footage of every person who clapped for him and give them the same ousting that Winn is about to.'
'I want to contact his employer to do just that. Ruin his livelihood.'
'Say goodbye to your job f***** [middle finger emoji].'
'I want every single person who clapped for that ousted en masse and their livelihoods ruined:).'


Gotta love lib tolerance and values. They tolerate others so long as they do what they're told and say what they're told to say. If you deviate...

'Im telling you. SOMETHING has to happen to one of them.'
'Something public and permanent.'
'Lines drawn in the cement.'
'Lives needs to be ruined beyond repair.'
'Lets actually destroy them. Grind them.'
'If he had said that s*** about black kids or autistic kids I would shoot him.'
'We REALLY need to find this guy.'
'You guys need to stop protesting and start fighting back against these people Time to just do something different to shut them down.'
'F*** just getting him [fired].'
'Im soooo ready to show up with guns lol.'
'His life needs to be PERMANENTLY disassembled.'


Death threats and escalating behavior. That's today's left wing.

'Please leave me in a room alone with Elicia' and 'She is so lucky there are laws because she would be curbstomped.'

Elicia probably doesn't have to worry too much, as most of these people couldn't curbstomp a wet paper bag.

On Thursday, 7News Reporter Nick Minock asked Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin about his reaction to the list shortly before it was made public.

'I'm just astounded,' Youngkin told 7News Reporter Nick Minock on Wednesday. 'I truly am astounded that the suggestion that there could be an organized effort in order to truly tear people down and hurt them; done by people who seemed to have ties to elected officials, at least reported as so. We got to get to the bottom of all of this and it can't stand, it just can't. It's a truly, truly shocking revelation if it's all true. And I know we're going to get to the bottom of it and hold people accountable as appropriate.'

According to a whistleblower, they received the list from someone in the Loudoun Love Warrior's Facebook group. The Sheriff's Office is investigating threats made in the group after 7News's exclusive reporting showed threats were being made.


Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares isn't one to play. These idiots are about to learn what F Around and Find Out means.
