The economic nationalism of the Democratic party (though there's plenty of support for this from the Republicans too) is reaching a new sort of crescendo in recent years. That's par for the course. What isn't and shouldn't be is that these same tendencies have moved in the direction of indirectly controlling access to information platforms and means of expressing oneself. Banning TikTok for example, done under the guise of surveillance fears and the absurd boogeyman of "misinformation" takes circumventions of free speech protection to new levels.
