Lots of conflation of verbal response versus physical violence here despite the massive gulf of difference.

You should expect verbal pushback on your shitty ideas. You should expect physical safety nonetheless.

> You should expect verbal pushback on your shitty ideas

There is also shitty pushback to decent, or inchoate, ideas. I strongly push back against the notion that there shouldn’t be spaces where one can say something dumb and not be crucified for it.

Again: “crucified.” Say what you actually want, I don’t know how to interpret this idea. I haven’t heard of a crucifixion in recent times if I’m being honest.

ISIS crucified a number of people as recently as 2014.

See, what an excellent contrast between actual crucifixion and simply someone saying your ideas are bad and socially ostracizing you.

It is figurative speech. It is valid use of an English language.

Right and it means “don’t criticize when I say stupid things,” which is how the marketplace of ideas works.
