"I hate what you say but I will die defending your right to say it". In all places, these people are curating comments and posts to push agenda.

It's incredibly tiresome, not just online but in real life. There is no freedom vs control debate. There's just the people who advocate arresting those who teach their children inconvenient truths vs those who advocate arresting those who use naughty language.

That's kind of a hilarious way to frame each side of the debate. Hilarious in a bad way that doesn't give you the benefit of the doubt on the topic.

The 2020 election was stolen isn't an inconvenient truth, it's not naughty language, it's a lie that the majority of GOP house candidates are furthering. You're mischaracterization of the debate leads me to believe you made this comment in bad faith.

I was actually talking about CRT and the history of slavery in the United States. That's the inconvenient truth legislatures in some states are attempting to arrest people for teaching. Plenty of people are trying to keep election conspiracy theories off social media but as far as I know nobody is trying to pass a law against spreading them.

You're mischaracterization of the debate leads me to believe you made this comment in bad faith.

And there it is. Advocate for free speech in front of a left-leaning audience and you're a conspiracy-spewing Republican. Advocate for free speech in front of a right-leaning audience and you're a child-grooming communist. Like I said, tiresome.

Right, no one actually wants free speech, they're just mad when the moderator disagrees with them.
