Turley is sounding red-pilled of late.
A liberal leaning legal scholar in the old sense of the word liberal, but with principles. He gets what’s going on, and how the ground has shifted under his feet.
Democraps are nothing but re-branded Communists. They want Soviet/Maoist Communism. Period.
If implemented, this has a good chance of being the tipping point.
Then the reason for the 2nd Amendment will become obvious.
Then the liberals can experience the pleasure of sheltering in place.
Forever.
I will go one further Professor Turley - democrats want to wield the same power as the CCP does in China over our population and nation.
Turley is finally waking up to how dangerous the left is getting.
They are against the speech for personal freedom.
Among other things.
Their restrictions on free speech and one party rule and control. See what they’ve done in California as exhibit A.
When you’re trying to be sneaky and oppressive, free speech is the first necessary step of opposition.
The justification for that is the danger of fake news about coronavirus risks and cures.
Was the government right or wrong in its projections about the coronavirus? Was the government right or wrong in its reaction to those projections? Just what do we need to be protected from, ourselves or the government that has itself engaged in fake projections, perverse restrictions and "fake news?"
The Atlantic authors promote censorship to ensure that speech on the "Internet is compatible with society norms and values." But is it not the effect of the give-and-take within this new virtual public square to work out what "norms and values" will be for society? Will not censorship of that give-and-take stifle the outworking of our norms and values?
To censor social media to protect societies "norms and values" is to engage in a virtual oxymoron.
