I think you’re misreading that quote.

From the full article that Popehat posted, it seems to be warning that you have to defend the free speech of even the slimy douchebags, because if someone wants to restrict free speech, they’ll start with the unpopular speech first.

So, no, we’re not cool with what Gawker did. We’re also not cool with a billionaire using the legal system to take down a “news” website for reporting something that was true, no matter how slimy they were for reporting it.

Nope.

All of the aforementioned are prime examples of douche-baggery, in their own individual ways;

Thiel and Hogan are terrible people, and Gawker is a terrible company.

Shouldn’t it be “How much douche could a douchebag bag?”

Is there a set standard for tongue twisters?

The standard woodchuck sentence makes sense. That sentence doesn’t.

Okay… I didn’t design the meme; I just posted it.

Would you like me to delete it, since I can’t ‘undesign’ it?

Why would I want you to delete it? It’s just a meme.

Shouldn’t that be a “pedantry tree”?
