"Precedents do matter"
"Most social change is gradual and rests on precedents"
"First the easy meat is taken down then they go for bigger game."

Not to liars and cheats. The Left lies and cheats.

Radical activists don't want gradual social change. The Left are radical activists.

They are and have been going after the biggest game.

What they or anyone wants doesn't matter. Only what is doable matters. Precedents pave the way to make doable tomorrow what is not doable today. To say that precedent doesn't matter is to deny reality. It is to deny the meaning of words like precedent and incrementalism. The fact that the left is unethical and would like to deny reality themselves doesn't free them from working with it. They know this quite well as evidenced by their strategies. If the right ignores this reality and doesn't recognize that events are connected the left will make good use of the opportunity.

This was a precedent in controlling the airwaves and it provides a foothold for the next step.
