How /lit/ is Brendan O'Neill?

>The openness of the internet is too great a gift to let easily offended Guardianistas destroy it. Those of us who stood up to the blue-rinse lobby that wanted to make the internet a safe space for children (ie, drain its sass and danger) must now stand up to the pseudo-liberal lobby that wants to make it a safe space for self-important columnists and feminists (ie, drain its frankness and craziness). The bottom line is this: too much liberty is always, but always, better than too little. In the words of Thomas Jefferson: ‘I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty, than those attending too small a degree of it.’ If the biggest inconvenience of internet freedom is that losers tell you you’re stupid or ugly and should be punched, then we should consider ourselves very lucky indeed. Grow up, Guardianistas. Virtual abuse is only virtual. And your feelings should come a very far second to everyone else’s freedom.

Sounds like someone who needs to get off twitter and facebook and back into the read world.

Outside of college and social media you dont even run into this shit.

>'Libertarianism'
He's as much of a shill as the Guardian crowd, just a slightly different breed of shill.
