Our First Amendment rights are at risk because of
corruption in Big Tech, and our Second Amendment rights are at risk because progressives are using crises and tragedy to go for the guns. Prof. William
Jacobson puts both risks in perspective at Legal Insurrection:
Every time I think the
media-Democrat frenzy could
not get any more frenzied, it gets more frenzied.
How seamlessly they have
transitioned from almost three years of Russia-collusion-mania to the current
frenzy claiming that anyone and everyone who supports Donald Trump is a white
supremacist.
Trump supporters now, according the
narrative, are both Putin-puppet traitors AND Hitler-wannabees. It’s all so
dishonest by design; the leaders of this charge don’t actually believe it, they
cynically manipulate their media and social media power to drive their
supporters, many of whom do believe it, into hating political opponents as an
ideology. MSNBC is ground zero for this manipulative denigration of half the
population.
If it only were dishonest, it would
be bad enough. But it’s worse because it now has become a hunt to find heretics
for public shaming. This is not new, but now it is legitimized as an anti-Trump
strategy by the Resistance. Congressman Joaquin Castro naming names in his
community, including retirees and homemakers, is a symptom of a culture of
total political war on the left. Other symptoms include the attempt to
deplatform non-liberal voices from the internet and airwaves, led by
well-funded groups like Media Matters.
