Who decides what’s good and what’s forbidden? What’s hate or love? The same people who called the burning looting, and destroying of American cities the ‘summer of love”?
America’s intellectual leadership has collapsed.
Freedom of speech is the foundation of a free society. Without it, a tyrant can wreak havoc unopposed, while his opponents are silenced. Putting up with speech that offends is essential in a pluralistic society in which people differ on basic truths. If a group will not bear being offended without resorting to violence, that group will rule unopposed while everyone else lives in fear, while other groups curtail their activities to appease the violent group. This results in the violent group being able to tyrannize the others.
If speech that offends a group is outlawed, that group has absolute power, and a free society is destroyed. A group that cannot be criticized cannot be opposed. It can work its will no matter what it is, and no one will be able to say anything to stop it.
Inoffensive speech needs no protection. The First Amendment was developed precisely in order to protect speech that was offensive to some, in order to prevent those who had power from claiming they were offended by speech opposing them and silencing the powerless.
A free society is by its nature one in which people put up with others being uncivil and offensive. The alternative is a quiet authoritarian society in which only one opinion is allowed and the others are silenced, and ultimately sent to the camps.
White House Press Secretary: Biden Backs Censorship of Trump
Daybreak Insider: The press secretary said “We’ve spoken to him and he’s spoken to the need for social media platforms to continue to take steps to reduce hate speech.” The video is here (Twitter). From Dave Rubin: This is extraordinarily dangerous and shows you how big tech is just an extension of the government. 1at amendment stops govt from silencing you, so the government wants to outsource that to the tech companies. (Also, as per Supreme Court there is no such thing as hate speech.) (Twitter).

As the Leftists grab more and more power, we will look back at Jan 6 2021 as a lost opportunity to stop them.
Pence had the power and Constitutional authority to have avoided this. I always thought of him as being a fake Christian and a POS but he should have disregarded the Gov. and Secretary of State electoral slates and accepted the Constitutional and rightful legislative slates from the legislature, contesting the Governors and Secretary of State slates that were in opposition.
It sounds like he is planning a 2024 Presidential run. He is probably dumb enough to believe we will be so desperate and give him a landslide victory. His brain is where the sun doesn’t shine. I also don’t think the fraud voting machines will vote him in.
Democraps think they can just ignore the 1st Amendment? Not likely. I feel like going to a liberal University and just start speaking my mind from focal points on campus. Packing of course in case I am threatened so I can eliminate any threats.
They already are. Hate speech…..
Don’t get me wrong, DO IT!
Well i’d say he’s in the line – biden,schiff,soros,kerry are certainly ahead of him –
When the U.S.A. was a legitimate government, the punishment for treason was death, Beijing Biden.
Comrade Chairman Bi den-Jo
Free speech will remain free… UNLESS THEY GET THE GUNS!
Which is why they so desperately want them.
Once they get our guns, free speech is as good as DEAD.

There are already on that. To buy a gun they want to give you a psychological test. You can imagine what the outcome of that will be for Trump people….
Hate speech as defined by the haters of America.
Yeah that should work.
So does social media and LARGE CORPORATIONS and soon LARGE BANKS.

what do you expect from a communist run “biden team”?
Yusuf al Bideni wants to impose carefully disguised islamic blasphemy and heresy laws under the auspices of outlawing hate speech as well I’m sure.
The secularist left can’t compete intellectually or spiritually with the Godfearing right, so they want to shut us down.
Very few true intellectual leaders remain – Thomas Sowell is one of them –
