- Reposted by MatteoThis is 💯. As one of the canaries first smeared as “censor” by the masters of projection now actually chilling speech, I would add that the lawfare is structured such that you can never exonerate yourself— they will move the goalposts, or simply repeat the lie more loudly. Collective action is key.
- New, from me: you were told that the threats to free speech came from wokeness. Some compared it to Maoist China. Now we are witnessing government power being used to silence dissent and censor ideas. Now we know what real society-wide chilling effects look like. 🧵 open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...
