Left's "hate speech" laws are latest totalitarian threat to our democracy | Eastern NC Now
far left wants to goose step all over freedom of speech
The most fundamental right in a democratic country is freedom of speech. Without freedom of speech, in fact, democracy itself is not possible. That is why the far left around the world has targeted freedom of speech in its War on Democracy. One prong has been a Ministry of Truth approach of having govenrment or some other entity declare what is "truth" and disallow any other speech. The other is prohibiting anything other than government approved speech as vaguely defined "hate speech".
The Biden regime has already gotten its fingers burned trying to trot out the Ministry of Truth type suppression of free speech. Now far left Democrats at the state level are trying the "hate speech" approach. "Hate speech is an Orwellian Newspeak term used by totalitarians who hate free speech.
In Washington State, far left Democrats have introduced un-American legislation that smacks of Soviet Russia or Nazi Germany. SB 5427 would penalize "hate speech" and give residents of the state a $2,000 bribe to report "hate speech" to the Attorney General. Clearly the far left is just as keen to destroy our 1st Amendment freedoms as they are our 2nd Amendment freedoms.
While Democrats constantly whine with false accusations against President Trump supposedly being a threat to democracy, it is the Democrats in our country who are the real enemies of democracy.

Anyone who reads your gibberish here knows where you stand on the ideological spectrum whether you fess up to it or not, Bolshevik Bob. The real truth is that your lefties did introduce the bill referred to in the article and it does what is described. You can look it up on the website of the Washington state legislature and read it for yourself, troll.

Nope, just the truth. The far left, I'm not even close to being far left, is just as bad as the far right on these pages. Neither can govern.

As usual, Bobbie uses his own definition of "true" which in his Orwellian Newspeak means "consistant with the far left narrative". That totalitarian bill filed by Demcorats in Washington state is VEry real.

Biden is attacking the democratic values of our Constitutional republic constantly. His supporters attempts to kick his oppponents off the ballot, both in the Democrat primary and in the general election are standard authoritarian tactics. So is bringing bogus criminal charges against opponents, and the Biden White House has been caught colluding with all three of the partisan Democrat prosecutors doing that. Biden and Putin have a lot in common; they are both channelling their inner Stalin.

Denial is not a river in Egypt, Little Bobbie. This is a good case in point. You COULD have checked this article out on the legistature's website, in which case you would have found the info in it to be true, but you didn't. You just did a blanket knee-jerk denial because it did not fit your narrative.
This is what the far left now calls "malinformation" which they want to suppress; information that is factually true but goes against their narrative. Check with your talking points, Bobbie. The left has stopped denying information like this. They just want to suppress it because it hurts their narrative even when they admit it is true.
