Comedian Evan Sayet had some funny thoughts this past weekend — but maybe he should watch out before he gets slapped with a hate crime for it.
Speaking at the Unite IE Conservative Conference this past weekend, Sayet joked that liberals have turned very process of thinking into something illegal.
“They have actually turned thinking into a hate crime,” he said. “The concept behind this is that anything you believe is so tainted by your personal prejudices.”
Building on the concept, Sayet pointed out the unique perception liberals have on debate and discussion.
“Liberals only do well when they lecture to you,” he said. “They have cowed us into not speaking. For one thing, we are polite, and they have made debate and discussion something that is ugly.”
Sayet qualified his position by saying it doesn’t have anything to do with how smart people of a certain political persuasion are. It’s instead about the willingness to exchange ideas.
“It’s not that the liberal is stupid, it’s that he has made thinking into something he will not engage in,” he said.
