Abercrombie & Fitch Faces Protests, Backlash for Not Selling Larger Sizes

38. If you're going to claim it, learn to spell it.

And it's not a non-sequitur.

You expressed opposition for having private corporations' "liberty" curtailed. I pointed out that there are defensible justifications for curtailing such "liberty," regardless of whether such liberty is de facto conferred by Citizens United. And even if "private corporations" are entitled to such benefit with respect to economic activity, Citizens United is silent on a whole range of other non-economic liberties which apply only to individuals, such as the liberty to engage in douchebaggery.

That particular liberty (to engage in douchebaggery) is only guaranteed to individuals, not to corporations, and then only insofar as the specific douchebaggery engaged in does not cause material, economic, or physical harm to, or infringe on the rights of, the individual or class of individuals who are being subjected to the douchebaggery.

And the individual(s) subjected to said douchebaggery also enjoy a protected right to expose the nature of the douchebaggery to which they are being subjected, protest said infliction, and retaliate insofar as that retaliation does not cause material, economic, or physical harm to, or infringe on the rights of, the aforementioned douchebag.

Isn't this fun? We could do it all day.

amusedly,
