Since it is controlled by the GOP, I wonder if this is a way to find out who does not "support" the party or start a Social Score like the CCP did a few years ago.
More and more it seems that party is loosing its original outlook.
- gjsman-1000 4y ago> More and more it seems that party is loosing its original outlook. The original outlook was never free speech absolutism. Both sides have always agreed there are limits on free speech, but just have different metrics for where the line should be drawn. Many on the Democratic side would be OK with stricter rules against using "deadnames" or incorrect pronouns deliberately against trans people; while the GOP would be strongly opposed. Likewise, the GOP would likely not rule the Satanic Temple to have any free speech on school campuses if possible, whereas the Democratic side would call that inconsistency.
- giraffe_lady 4y agoDepends on when you define "original" I guess but this wouldn't be out of place in their playbook during my entire life, at least. They're at least as much for consolidating and wielding state power against individuals as the democrats are they just have much better branding around it.
