    Free speech not under attack example but what freedom boy thinks is an attack on freedom of speech:

    "For there is always light, if only we are brave enough to see it. If only we are brave enough to be it." Amanda Gorman

    "When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross"

    Cancel culture is definitely starting to be weaponized by some people.

    I have faith that Dalyn is above who is getting censured.

    Hope my faith is in the right spot. Thats why I cant get too worked up about Bari Weiss who cheered on the censorship of right wing voices.

    I despise censorship. Also not real fond of liars.

    I mean, this is no enforcing terms of service or any of the rest of the real attacks on freedom of speech

    Portland is escalating this all by themselves. They are putting authorities in a no win situation but the pressure is
    mounting to get it under control.

    For days, federal agents in unmarked cars have reportedly been snatching Portland protesters off the streets. On Thursday, video emerged of federal agents clad in camouflage fatigues and unspecified “police” patches apprehending one such demonstrator and placing him in an unmarked vehicle. Social media lit up with speculation about the intentions—and the identity—of these agents. A memo consisting of internal talking points for the federal agency responsible for the arrest, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and obtained exclusively by The Nation provides some answers—and even more questions.

    I honestly feel that most of the people protesting recently have been peaceful, unfortunately those who haven't been peaceful have really made a mess of things. What I would like to see is those who videotaped the cops being criminals themselves need to start videotaping the rioters who hide within the ranks of the protesters. If you want to peacefully protest that's fine, it's a Constitutional right, but once you cross that line into violence and destruction you've lost me. I still believe in making the changes they say need to be made (or most of them anyway) but why not shine the light on people who break the law no matter which color they are, which group they claim to be in, etc.??

    Just my 2 cents worth.
