Carol Platt Liebau: The American Left vs. First Amendment
Manage episode 443110725 series 3343739
This November, our First Amendment right to free speech is on the ballot.
At a World Economic Forum panel last week, former Secretary of State John Kerry said the quiet part out loud. He hates the free speech social media allows. Here’s what he said: “they're putting out disinformation, our First Amendment stands as a major block to be able to just, you know, hammer it out of existence.”
Kerry’s not alone.
For elites, free speech is a problem because it makes it impossible for them to impose their narrative on the rest of us.
Kamala Harris shares Kerry’s contempt for the First Amendment. Her deputy campaign manager worked for Biden, forcing social media companies to censor covid information. As attorney general of California, she lobbied the then-CEO of Twitter to kick Donald Trump off the platform.
Remember: the freedom to speak is the freedom to think. And vote accordingly.
