As an anti-aurhoritarian I’ve been of the opinion that that we’ve been an authoritarian hell hole for pretty much all of my life. Yes Trump is a fascist but the government is also heavy-handed when Democrats are in power. If you’re encouraged that almost half of the votes went to authoritarian Harris, I’d say you shouldn’t be. She wasn’t a leftist, honestly I think of her as a little bit fascist too, just less ironically puritan.

First amendment protections for speech expressing our grievances against our government are very well established. I think even this Supreme court will agree. We’ll see, but this is basic free speech. There are people who are against free speech or waver depending on the kind of speech. I’m all for free speech, even what some would call hate speech. I’m an advocate, and I know the law and precedents. I don’t think this has any legs.
