I then explained why the quote was simply to illustrate speakers should be allowed to make offensive, devisive points, and found another one that is non-fictional, just for you. Further, people will have widely different points of view on what is offensive, hateful, and as you've shown, can even take things out of context now and then, so again, we should allow speakers of different political stripes to express their opinions to those who want to hear them.
Though you seem to begrudgingly acknowledge there was a whole big argument there that did not rely on the quote being non-fictional, you insist on ignoring the point and focusing on that triviality. Who's arguing in bad faith here?
This entire thread is an attempted assault on the supposed "SJW" mode of thinking, and the ill-defined "SJW" quite frequently is feminist, so when you attempt to represent that side by pulling up horrendous misquotes, that's bad. I'm glad you acknowledged that particular quote, but you also followed it up with the usual whataboutery of pointing me towards a link supposedly full of them as though I were meant to put any faith in the fairness of that source. You then pulled another Dworkin line out for me as though you can just gish gallop through it.
Maybe you don't see the veracity of that quote as substantial to
your side of the argument. What you should see is that to the
other side of the argument it absolutely matters as they are taking stances against inviting speakers who incite violence.
It's also important because, as said before, you're pulling up a quote with a shock factor without having looked at any context or meaning behind it. And your response is a "Sorry, but hey, I've got plenty more". I don't want plenty more. I just want you to have some understanding of the kind of "SJW" Dworkin might be before you start throwing her name about.
