If you support free speech, you must support people pinging other users. It's completely legal speech. If you won't defend pinging as free speech because you or someone else finds it disgusting, then no speech that you or anyone else views as disgusting is safe.

>if it is in fact on shaky legal ground it's reasonable to not want to be the case that establishes it as illegal.

It's not, The reddit admins are straight up lying to the ignorant (like yourself) to justify their prejudice. Pinging being protected speech has long since been estabilished, as it has undeniable artistic merit. The only time it's been included under any obscenity laws is when someone is being charged with possession of harassment, so the state can slap them with more charges. The courts have been very careful to not charge anyone for pinging, because they'd get their asses fucking annihilated by a higher court due to the firm precedence of pinging being completely legal speech. /r/Drama had nothing to worry about, this guy was just making shit up to fool people into thinking his censoring wasn't entirely personally motivated.

You posting this implies you think anyone wants to know what a bong thinks or feels, but that's just not true though, sorry.

Keep talking English yank

How does it feel when you're switching your 13 year old daughter's phone from Urdu back to English and you have to hit a button that says 🇺🇲English?

I don't even know what UM English means

edit: the flag didn't show up, we don't have american flags on language selection in Europe, yank. It's the union jack always

I'm Australian you bong. Go eat some black pudding or some shit and kys

Army advertisements in the US still feature scenes of people shooting red coats during the 1700s. Who would have thought that butthurt would last 300 years?

Better than being a filthy bong

I don't need insulin because I actually eat right and am fairly active. Quit projecting you buck toothed malignant loafer

The only flabby things here are your limp wrists as you furiously type away

Good! I am too. Let's point and laugh at the poorcel countries together

Legend has it that had they not been introduced to whiskey they'd be an advanced country with flying cars and all

Lmao the Protestant British are just Irish who were too poor to pay for indulgences

Listen here, snaggleteeth. We’ve got a preemptive drone strike with your name on it if you don’t shut your mutton pie hole.

Bongs are not people

The fact that we're so fat and lazy and yet still more relevant than the UK makes it that much more embarrassing for you

Bongs make posts like this after every disgusting meal. If you're a fan of different shades of gruel and calling things with common names your own unique and stupid name like lorry, then britbongistan is for you.

Yeah thank you for being so fucking incompetent you lost control of your only relevant western hemisphere colony to a bunch of frogs and "fat fucks who consume their own body weight in shitty garbage food".

Also imagine being a bong and talking shit about food when your best food is knock off Indian food from Scotland. It never even began for perfidious albion.

Enjoy your beans on toast and cultural pedophilia bong.

I digress, but bong food really is disgusting. Lots of boiled flesh and organ meat. That breakfast of beans and toast they are so proud of is revolting. What even is the point of the halved tomato? Just more fluids to run together and congeal? I understand why they think fried fish and potatoes are special with that sort of cuisine.

This post offended me. I have notified the bong law enforcement and they informed me they will investigate your ISP. I hope you have a loicense .

I'm confused, are crumpets so obsessed with us that they think we would ever even consider them as someone to thank? Is that genuinely what you think? Rent free doesn't even begin to describe it

I'm confused

Fuck anglos ""people" ". The few only good ones are living in Scotland, like uncle scrooge 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Let me tell you about my boy Hume

The only foreigner Americans owe anything to.

Based frog.

I was exaggerating, there's a hell of a lot of Poles who also should be on that list as well as well as people who were born in Britain but were our kind of people.

Well yeah. Von Steuban deserves a nod for example.

Lafayette was a true bro though, he really does deserve a lot of recognition.

We owe our Republic to Locke and Rousseau.

The sun set on the British Empire a long time ago. All that's left is an endless night for you. Have fun.

Anglos are the reason napoleon lost. And I will never forgive them for it.
