Fox is only centrist by American conservative standards. The positions they support are considered far-right by most of the developed world outside of the middle-east and china.

Right, no sources, just your personal experience. The hallmark of the "American conservative". Facts be damned.

Democrats control the mass media,

This is delusional. Fox news is the largest "news" organization in America by a wide margin.

So you made it up? You can't state things as fact based on your personal observations from your echo chamber.

It's indisputably true in my personal, anecdotal, life experience

I could have guessed that. Your perspective seems very insular.

Up until a few years ago, it was widely held by people of all political persuasions

<citation required>. You can't just make shit up.This is only exists in your echo chambers.

Free speech is a delicate principle. It requires everyone to firmly agree that everyone is allowed to speak freely, and we're all prepared to fight to the death, literally, to defend their right to say it

What? Says who? This only exists in r/conservative echo chambers. You're free to say what you want but nobody has to listen.

The "prepared to fight to the death to defend it" is in reference to the "free speech" that the constitution protects. We literally had a war about it 300 years ago. You can't have it both ways.

I'm not saying "no true Scotsman." I'm saying Mussolini was a legitimate fascist, and his party died a long time ago. Some people today have similar traits, especially on the Left, but nobody is really part of his party anymore.

I'm saying Trump it the leader of the Conservative party in America and you are saying he's not a true conservative. It's the definition of "no true Scotsman". Stating it's not doesn't actually change anything.

You're talking about a "free speech" that only exists in /r/conservative echo chambers. You are free to say what you want but you are not free from the consequences. We do not have to listen. And it's not a "disgrace" that nobody cares to hear what you have to say.

But back to the definition, you can't just pluck a couple of words out of there and say it's a match.

That's what you did. So I responded with actual examples, using the conservative front runner- and you replied with "no true Scotsman".

That makes absolutely no sense.

Or, you mean like this very thread where leftists are trying to silence the TERFs? Yes, leftists absolutely love the forcible suppression of their opposition.

Oh wow did somebody place you under arrest for posting your opinions online?? Or does this have absolutely nothing to do with free speech, again?

The principle of free speech, in America, has nothing to do with forcing people to tolerate hateful rhetoric. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_speech_in_the_United_States.

In the United States, freedom of speech and expression is strongly protected from government restrictions by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, many state constitutions, and state and federal laws. Freedom of speech, also called free speech, means the free and public expression of opinions without censorship, interference and restraint by the government.

As long as the government isn't arresting you for your opinions then nothing going on here has to do with "free speech". Individuals and corporations silencing you online is not a "disgrace to the principle of free speech".

I've not done it myself but I've done a ton of other linux projects. Just read through the instructions and see if there is anything you don't understand. Figure out your exit strategy before you start: how do you revert to ChromeOS if you are at an impasse? Trust that there are at least dozens of people who have already run into every problem you could have and have posted about it somewhere on the internet with a solution.

Sounds like you're in a good spot to try it since you have more than one on-hand. Good luck!

Nice! I just water it with distilled water. It catches its own little bugs.
