Yes. The Left was all for freedom of speech as long as they controlled the media.

“Yes. The Left was all for freedom of speech as long as they controlled the media.”

I’ll phrase it slightly different:

“Yes. The Left was all for freedom of speech UNTIL they controlled the media.”

It reminds me of Lenin answering a question:

QUESTION: Vlad, you said all during the revolution that you supported free speech.

ANSWER: Yes, but that was before I achieved power.
