It's amazing how every example of left-wing censorship is just someone using their own free speech, and every right wing example is institutional/governmental action.

Honestly it didn't really turn into this. From the beginning it was always a bunch of fascists just using the term "free speech" to call for the use of force, jails and administrative sanctions to terrorize and eliminate anyone who disagrees with or even dislikes them on any topic.

In the Iranian hostage crisis we at UW-Madison had to create safe houses for those being KNIFED on campus if they looked Iranian/middle-eastern. I am still proud of protecting people then. I will do it again now. This country has gone crazy. I see no party at the moment NOT acting authoritarian.

I haven't seen such venomous treatment of public dissent to government actions and opinions since the Iranian Hostage Crisis. We all know that the Republicans at that time were secretly working with the Iranians behind Carter's back. Do you really trust no back door traitorous behavior now? Not me.
