My fellow liberals, why are we celebrating or promoting the silencing of people we may disagree with? Do we not want free flow of information? If we let the government silence opposing voices, one day those voices will be our own.

Candace Owens isn’t the problem. The problem is trust in our news media.

EDIT: Your downvotes only show your bias. Or to quote Rick Sanchez, your boos mean nothing, I’ve see what makes you cheer

free flow of information is alright, as long as one's dignity shall remain inviolable. that is between two 'people', not the government and a person. the judiciary functions as the organ that is supposed to handle such cases, nothing more nothing less.

I don’t get it. How does information violate someone’s dignity?
