- taylodl 1y agoThis action was taken under an administration whose supporters frequently champion free speech as a core American value. Yet when dissent arises from within, the response is not dialogue or debate - it’s discipline. The irony is hard to miss. In this case, it seems that free speech is equal - until it challenges authority. Then it becomes a liability. As Orwell said, all animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.
