The right had a point that there was too much eagerness to censor from some on the left. Police going round to people’s homes for tweets expressing opinions was daft and wrong. Which is why it is so frustrating to see so many of the same people cheer on hounding of those who dared to criticise Kirk. It’s not even about those who said ghoulish things about Kirk, but many want anyone who dared to say anything negative to face repercussions. People like Stephen Miller want the opposition to the Republicans categorised as domestic terrorists. So much for free speech.
At least, with the left, it was often just silly university professors and activists. Now the government is pushing for what is allowed to be said and broadcast, with threats to news channels for wrongthink. Sounds like that totalitarian Marxist government coming into place for me. :-)
