@XBillups @studentactivism Or with regard to torture, I think that it ought to be taboo to torture people, and that various Bush era officials should face jail for torture, but I don't think a cartoonist should get fired for believing waterboarding was the right thing to do after 9/11. — PolitiTweet.org

@XBillups @studentactivism So with Communism, I'd say that, in America today, huge majorities agree both that *Communism is a bad system* and also *Red-Scare style persecution of communists was bad.* "McCarthy tactics" has a negative connotation even among many people who hate Communism. — PolitiTweet.org

@XBillups @studentactivism In Germany, I get why there is a special taboo against Holocaust denial, and in America, I get why there is a similar taboo against Jim Crow style racism or hurling the n word at black people. How exactly should that taboo be enforced? I don't know, exactly — PolitiTweet.org
