  1. "Should offesive speech be banned?" is like asking "Do you want communism?"

  2. So is political correctness. In practice, though, things are quite different.

  3. Communism in an Utopian world is based by the power of the state through the society, where the society works for the betterment of the country, which will result in better lives for them, as citizens of that country, not for the betterment of an individual or specific individuals, creating huge gaps between classes, where some steal and exploit others. Abolition of private property doesn't mean what you say, it means that you can't have your own business, everybody works for the state, you can't have your own home because they are given by the state, but you can have your own car and other private belongings that are not immobile.

  4. You can make fun of every ideology that takes itself a little bit too seriously. This includes religion too.

  5. You're making some confusions, so let me help you on this one. The first phrase, yes to everything. I am not obliged to serve any God and I am in my right able to say anything I please about any ideology. Same goes for a country that might have racist policies, servicemen that might be corrupt, a pledge in which I do not believe, or an anthem that is not worth my respect. Trade or secrets on the other hand are something called Intellectual Property. This is information that is OWNED by certain corporations and institutions, so it is their's to use and permit others to use them ONLY as they see fit. Regarding your personal information, you can post that all over the internet if you want, but I wouldn't recommend you to do that. Regarding sexual remarks, those are part of the true freedom of speech. Photos that are made on public property require no consent to be published and distributed anywhere and by anyone. If a pedophile would interact directly, either through direct speech or through certain social networks, with your kids, than that would be indeed considered a sexual offence and should be punished accordingly.

  6. Well, I for one could take you on Facebook anytime. What exactly would be the relevance ? I am happy to even tell you to your face if you'd live near me. So what ? What are you going to do ? Let me tell you what you're going to do : nothing.
