He has no right to a "hate speech" claim any more than Trump does.

If you throw yourself into the controversial public speech arena -- and if that's how you make your living -- all bets should be off regarding insults, short of anything illegal.

It's absolutely insane that this guy is playing victim, and people are buying it.

This is a piss poor reason to demonetize Crowder's channel.
so if a Jewish gay guy was active in the controversial public speech arena and Crowder was like so check out what this lispy kike queer is saying about me - that would be fine. Because all bets are off regarding insults if that is how you make your living.
