Brian Glicklich, head PR man and spokesperson for The Rush Limbaugh Show recently wrote an opinion piece stating he is very upset about 'hate speech' on Twitter. Never mind that he's been representing the king of Conservative radio hate mongers. Glicklich is the bully, in front of the bully, who just last Fall released the private and personal information about some of the StopRush volunteers (their names, home addresses, phone numbers…) which a plethora of Republican/Conservative/Tea Party websites picked up.
Who knows how many fanatics and Limbaugh Dittoheards now have access to that information. And these crazies have been calling, threatening and harassing the StopRush volunteers for months. That was you Brian. You did that. And now you're getting a taste of it, and you can't handle it? You don't like people calling you names? Cry me a river.
It's long past the time for a platform that offers an unmoderated voice to create more responsible methods to eliminate hate speech from software used by hundreds of millions worldwide, including vulnerable children, minorities and people looking simply to share their thoughts, not be shouted down with bullying and lies.
Did you really just say that? You think you're experiencing hate speech? Think about it some more, and how you have contributed to someone spewing it on a massive level, every day - for decades. Here is what hate speech looks like.
When your boss, Rush Limbaugh, implies homosexuals are 'pedophiles/child molesters,' it feeds into the hatred of the LGBT community. It sends a signal to derelicts that it's okay to mock, bully, and abuse those with a different sexual preference. Sometimes that leads to discrimination, hate crimes, teen suicides, and murder.
That is hate speech.
When your boss, Rush Limbaugh, calls women 'sluts, femi-nazis, and semen receptacles,' it feeds into misogyny and it dehumanizes women. It sends a signal that it's okay to demean and degrade women. Sometimes that leads to abuse, domestic violence, rape, and murder.
That is hate speech.one thing that is for racist rush that is not for those who oppose him and his despicable approach to talk radio they are not losing sponsors they are not despised by now who knows how many no one refuses to kiss their ring because they are Americans they don't need to be a wannabe king maker. the world of shock jocks is imploding they/you have gone to far it takes haters and racist and bigots to make an audience for that kind of reprehensible rhetoric. they seek to exclude well they achieved that they are now being excluded from the human race sponsors are running away people are turning the dial while he sits there smoking a cigar being immortalized for the museum of America's most hated haters.
why does he need to get a jr. hater to speak for him has he lost so many stations that he's afraid all the other haters won't hear is cries of foul "you are taking of space for my hateful rants", is he now a coward unable any longer to speak for himself or is he using this guy as a collateral damage excuse that he didn't say he wants is own MO deleted from the air waves, don't think he had to do that the phenomenon is all but dead give it time and we will be saying rush whoooooooo?????
