Almost as much fun to watch as when Trump beat HillaryNothing terrifies the woke set more than free speech.

^ One of the few pleasures of the current culture war is to observe the hysteria of its chief antagonists whenever something doesn’t go their way. A couple of weeks ago, it was the frenzy over the UK government’s announcement that Channel 4 was likely to be privatised. MP Claudia Webbclaimed that the government’s plan was ‘not freedom or independence’ but rather ‘the seedbed of fascism’. She was clutching those pearls so hard that she was in danger of breaking her fingers.
And now, the news that Elon Musk’s bid to buy Twitter has been successful has caused a predictable meltdown of volcanic proportions. In the unbridled mania among identitarian leftists, we are seeing evidence that they have not learned the lessons of Brexit or the election of Donald Trump, which they similarly treated as portents of the apocalypse. It takes an infantile mind not to accept that democracy works on the basis of the loser’s consent, the principle that – as Roger Scruton put it – ‘We respect our fellow citizens even when they do not vote our way, because the government is not “mine” or “yours” but “ours”’.
Even the deranged reactions to the Brexit and Trump votes were but tepid premonitions of the responses to Musk’s takeover of Twitter.

A lot of the same hysteria and emotional instability from the left. The few of them who weren't irreparably broken by Trump will be finished off by Elon Musk. It's fun to watch.

Democrats don't want people saying things they disagree with.
Censorship is evil and so are the democrats supporting it

*Pant....Pant....Pant*.....WE CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE TRUMPSTERS SAYING WHAT THEY WANT AND UPSETTING LIBERALS!!!!!!!Nothing terrifies the woke set more than free speech.
The reason the libs are shaking in their boots is that Hunter Biden’s corruption, and with his father’s full knowledge of influence peddling, will not be able to be suppressed and hidden from the electorate.
Just in time for the midterms.
