Democratic governments should allow all voices to be heard, not silence speech they dislike.

That's real fucking rich coming from the government that:

  • Removed all references to "trans-" regardless of context.
  • Retaliates against left-leaning press.
  • Calls information they dislike "fake news".
  • Sends immigrants to concentration camps.

removed funding for weather services or deleted materials related to climate change

If we're adding "runs from people trying to ask them questions", we should be more accurate about it.

runs from people trying to ask them questions, calling them plants put there by political opponents

I'm not even joking, I thought that whoever wrote this tweet was supporting the French investigation when I first read that.

That because they don't want free apeech. They want the speech only if its their speech.

EU is not much better.
You have to be real careful with controversial subjects such as not liking genocide.
And plenty countries have forbidden communism.
Not to mention not honoring elections in Romania and anulling them, and not letting the winning party participate again.
Even if it is a horrible right-wing party that won, that is still a mask off moment.

That's the regressive mindset for you. When they say 'all', they mean themselves.

They don't want to be forced to listen to what YOU have to say, but they want to force YOU to listen to what they have to say.

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

She's still in there somewhere, locked away by propaganda. She needs to be deprogrammed, just like the rest.

No no, you don't understand. That doesn't apply to us plebs (US citizens). It only applies to other countries so that the government can checks notes "strongly condemn" them.

so what do they do with transport? Or foreign companies using trans in their name?

I’m waiting for the conniption when all these people find out that the cars and trucks they drive have transmissions.
