David French set off a firestorm by writing a column yesterday about social media censorship and complaining that conservatives are who are angry about it are a bunch of grossly entitled whiners who are “not conservative” for demanding government enforcement of antitrust laws.
There’s something grossly entitled about claiming you should have government-mandated access to a social media platform you didn’t create, maintained by people you oppose, and that you should have that access for free. Against government intervention: https://t.co/rmmkJPs8XU

French knew exactly what he was doing.
He knew how upset thousands of independent content creators were on YouTube about being demonetized and having their content arbitrarily purged in the latest round of corporate censorship. While Steven Crowder was on Twitter and Tucker Carlson was on FOX News last night trying to rally the internet against the censorship, French deliberately inserted himself into the fray to take the side of Silicon Valley oligarchs on behalf of the “eternal principles” of True Conservatism.
“But they’re not — not by a long shot. Donald Trump’s personal pugilism has been adopted, refined, and magnified by a legion of his supporters, and these individuals live to inflict misery. They don’t care to win an argument. They don’t care to persuade. They want to harass and swarm and mock in a carnival fun-house imitation of the online mobs generated by the woke social-justice left.
I experienced this reality (again) over the course of the last week. When Sohrab Ahmari wrote his now-famous (at least in conservative circles) essay called “Against David French-ism,” he made three core points. Politics is “war and enmity,” “civility and decency are secondary values,” and the right should fight the culture war “with the aim of defeating the enemy and enjoying the spoils in the form of a public square re-ordered to the common good and ultimately the Highest Good.” After reading his essay, a number of people asked, “But what does that look like. What do you mean when you make the case for enmity and against civility?” …
It’s for this reason that writers miss something fundamental when they begin their own discussion of the issues by “setting aside the personal attacks.” In this brave new political world, personal attacks are indispensable. A discussion of only ideas represents exactly the kind of politics the pugilists now abhor. It’s a time of “enmity,” remember? This is the illiberal right in action, and if you think it’s kinder, gentler, or better than the illiberal left, I’d suggest you spend a few days in its crosshairs.
But it’s all for the sake of the “Highest Good,” right? And if they have to create a straw man so that a real man can serve (again) as a hate object for the gutter right, then so be it. But when does the cruelty end? After all, they’ve mapped out a goal for the culture war that they cannot possibly achieve. Thus, the commitment to enmity is indefinite, and its indecency is perpetual. The illiberal right will snarl its way into oblivion. Let’s pray that the collateral damage from their inevitable demise is not too great.”
Now, look at him: curled up into a ball and wrist flapping to the media again – one of his favorite hobby horses – about how he is the true victim of the snarling “gutter right” in all this.
It is so unfair that all of these angry people are just being “cruel” to him again for no reason at all as if there was no substantial difference of opinion on major issues. Why don’t the peasants just kindly and gently allow themselves to get f***ed for the sake of his “eternal principles”?
Can someone please get David French a pillow and a binky and invite him to write another article in The Atlantic about the racism of Trump supporters or maybe allow him to come on your show and cry on your shoulder for a few minutes on CNN or MSNBC? Is Oprah available?
Stop showing that gammacuck’s face, please! For a much more attractive pic to gaze at, look here:

I second this request. His face is nauseating. So this is what “triggered” feels like …
Thanks for sharing that beautiful photo – is that Miss Welch? I’ve encouraged Hunter to include lots more tasteful photos of beautiful, sexy Indo European women. Our enemies certainly use the beauty of our women to further their causes. Why shouldn’t we?
Yes, that’s Raquel Welch. If any more pics of the limp French fry are forthcoming, I’ll share pics of my first crush, Barbara Eden. If any pics of “lesbian land whales” ever land on this site, I reserve the right to unleash classic Playboy centerfold shots as visual compensation.
French and his sponsors are preparing the world for the second coming of Christ. Christ must not be allowed to speak and must be silenced the moment he opens his mouth.
A pillow and binky! LMWAO!!!
I gotta say, how old is this guy? All ideology aside, he looks frail and weak as anything. Im not even talking weak as in “he wouldnt last long in prison”, but rather “he probably couldn’t stand up to the guy at the electronics counter at Best Buy”.
I know its not everyones mission in life to be super buff and all that, but at least look like you could beat a little girl at arm wrestling.
I know guys in their 70s that are healthier and more robust looking. I guess his ideology is so weak sauce that it’s destroyed him physically.
If his purpose is to make conservatism look as unappealing as possible, he should consider it mission accomplished.
Check this guys bank account. Its so obvious.
A shekel for the good goy who promotes (((true conservatism)))
Did you hear that Dr. John just passed away?
Asking me? Yep not a huge fan but he definitely was different then the other rockstars of his time the new Orleans voodoo rock musician Roky erickson also died 2 weeks ago he was definitely possessed by demons got screwed over by record executives and had mental illnesses he also never hid the fact that the devil helped influence his music i doubt either will be in heaven either by the types of lives they led
Civility? French is the enemy. He consistently advocates for the enemies of Whites and Christians by pleading for civility. He deserves far worse than he is receiving.
“David is easily one the creepiest, most pathetic excuses for a man that I have ever seen.”

I wonder if Mrs. French’s Negro boyfriends allow David to watch while they service her?
French is the personification of what conservatives really are: Anti-White controlled opposition. At least open enemies stab you in front. Conservatives stab you in the back.
Yes, conservatives are slime. Mealy-mouthing around while keeping the people paralyzed with the illusion of (totally ineffective) resistance.
Scummier than Antifa in a way. I would consider it to be an insult to be called “conservative.”
Theres something grossly entitled about wanting free speech in a country that was founded on….free speech. It’s a shame the guy has the last name French, an actual Frenchman would have more balls than this limp-twisted clown (no offense to Honk Honkler).
Only a genuine psychopath could become a major conservative spokesman. To be a conservative spokesman, you have to know exactly how far to go, exactly what to believe, and exactly which opinions you have to change on command. You have to fake guilt and outrage on command.
