Exactly. Let's not forget the real attempts at the government's internet censorship of previous administrations. Nobody seemed to care about that then.

Like give me a break. The previous admin took steps towards censoring real information that would be politically harmful to them, and now we're supposed to feel bad about the current admin who is taking productive steps against antagonist agents within our country?

I get that the law in this country is pliable and a nuanced subject but I'd rather deal with the latter issue - where our government is challenging the boundaries of the 1st amendment against our own enemies rather than their own people lol




Let me get this straight what the previous government did was wrong but what they now do is right because it’s against antagonist agents?

Sorry but that sounds like out of the fascist playbook.

They all just fought against „enemies“, but they decided who was declared an enemy.

In the end everybody who said anything against them was declared an enemy.
