What you’re defending is people willingly giving up their own freedoms because they got outraged over something they read on the internet.

And instead of owning up to that fact, saying “oh no, but that’s not what I expected, I expected these laws to affect someone else, not me”.

What on earth is this response

They're repeatedly calling people idiots (despite not understanding the topic at hand) and saying nobody can hold ideology if it cannot be implemented immediately in a political climate. What am I supposed to respond with?
