Censorship Is Back in the News

From Dr. Mauser at Shoplifting in the Marketplace of Ideas: I’ll say it: I told you so

Censorship has come to the UK and Europe.

So British and EU censorship laws have dropped, and especially on X, people are hitting the roof as every adult flagged account they follow from everywhere in the world is blocked for them.

The same people who wanted Trump silenced, and now upset that they and the people they like are silenced.

If you tolerate censorship in any form, simply because you think it only applies to the people you don’t like, you’re only fooling yourself. If you don’t stand on the principle of free speech for everyone, it WILL absolutely come around and bite you in the ass.

Hat tip to Sarah Hoyt at Instapundit.
