The bar for "doing politics the right way" can't be as low as "despite being murdered, he was not himself a murderer." Kirk was not a "robust supporter of free speech," he cut his teeth compiling lists of college professors to be fired, harassed, or worse. He was a fascist through and through
These people have smarted themselves into the dumbest fucking arguments.
Determining whether someone is "doing politics the right way" depends almost entirely on the content of their speech! If someone lies constantly and endorses authoritarians that's not practicing good politics.

This is a country living in terror of a non-existent crime wave, getting rid of vaccines which saved millions of lives, and indulging in economic policies which we saw fail 100 years ago. It's a deeply disordered place.

Bezos destroying the post opinion pages is just another reminder: Conservatives think free speech is when they can say what they want and when you can say what they want.

It's Big Oil's POLLUTION that causes the warming, but it's their MONEY that keeps the pollution flowing even though *clean energy is a thing.*

15 years after Citizens United, which transformed every corporate treasury in America into a potential political slush fund, we now see the result: government of billionaires, by oligarchs, for plutocrats.
