Is as much about "free speech" as it is about the sky being purple.

Interesting that it's about "free speech" when it comes to religion or conservative talking points but less so for people speaking out about those conservative talking points or people.
Multiple pro-democracy content creators have been "visited" by a whole host of alphabet agencies asking them questions about their content because of its criticism of this administration and asking them to come in for questioning while also telling them they didn't break any laws.
That is fascism. That is why I say it's fascism. Because it's only ever about "freedom of speech" when it agrees with Republican talking points.
