[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What attack on free speech? Are you talking about curtailing hate speech and incitation to violence? You know that in most wealthy nations, such actions are prohibited by law? The USA has an overly broad interpretation of free speech, which leads to hate crimes. [/quote] You need to understand what will happen if we start prohibiting speech because it "incites violence." Today, you might be happy to have Trump supporters' speech curtailed. But what if that standard was used in the past? I guarantee you MLK's and Malcom X's speech would be curtailed for inciting violence. What might happen in the future? I am not a Trump supporter by any means, but I am a firm believer in the First Amendment and I think everyone needs to stop being so short sighted. And to OP's point, yes, I know some liberals who are steering their kids toward schools like Chicago that have made clear that they value free speech over wokeness.[/quote]
