“You’re a fucking hypocrite. You want the internet to be free, but you don’t want the rest of us to be free on it. You want YOUR version of freedom. Well, guess what? Brutsch hasn’t been banned from the entire internet. He can still use the internet and be as shitty as he ever was. No one is stopping him. He hasn’t been silenced. You know what he’s getting? He’s getting the full free speech experience, not the distorted one you and your clown-ass compatriots have made up in your head. Free speech means that people get to speak back, to engage you, to confront you, to force you to defend your ideas, and to hold you accountable via discourse. You want to stifle a free press. Love it or hate it, Brutsch made himself a public figure and a figure in whom people had an interest. When the Amanda Todd story came to public awareness, there was even more interest in people who do things like sexually exploit and humiliate teens online. Women and girls who don’t show their breasts to people were also targets of people like Brutsch. We have an interest in knowing just who are these people who take upskirt photos of us when we’re going about our day. You want to cut off the right of people to have access to information via our free press. Why do you hate that aspect of free speech?Adrian did what people who do investigative journalism do: he investigated. He gave Brutsch a chance to defend himself, to tell his side of the story. George Orwell said it best: “Journalism is printing what someone else does not want printed; everything else is just public relations.” Guess what? We’re not going to let you whiners turn our free press into a PR campaign for the exploitation of others. You can champion it if you want, but other people have a right to hear the other side and express their opinion.”
One paragraph of the truth-bombiest comment I’ve read in a long time (via thecranium)
Boom.

More: “As for this creep’s life being ruined, you are once again encroaching on someone else’s right to free speech. You know what else is an exercise in free speech? His boss firing him. His boss exercised his right to express his stance on Brutsch’s behavior by firing him. That’s an act of speech. The public have a right to express their disapproval by ostracizing, isolating, and refusing to have any dealings with people they dislike. You know what that’s called? Freedom of association. Not only are we immunized from being barred from associating with someone, we are immunized from compulsory association. Refusing to associate with someone is an act of speech. For someone who is criticizing everyone else for trampling freedom, you sure don’t have a problem doing it yourself.”
