It's always fun to see a leftist bring up their victimization on the subject of free-speech. It's like the past disappears in a snap. It's weird too, democracks tell us how educated they are and stuff. It's just hard to notice a difference beyond mis-education and indoctrination. Wholly **** the local University radio. Same old shit, passive aggressive, trump trump trump trump, and **** white people, let us celebrate our diversity.The conservative movement has spent the days following the shocking murder of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk attacking a bedrock American value: free speech.
In the most high-profile incident, the Federal Communications Commission pressured ABC parent The Walt Disney Company to sideline talk show host Jimmy Kimmel after he made a joke mocking President Donald Trump’s response to Kirk’s death. This followed CBS canceling “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” shortly after the network paid a $16 million settlement to President Donald Trump over how “60 Minutes” edited an interview with Kamala Harris.
Vice President JD Vance and senior White House aide Stephen Miller have argued that a crackdown on left-of-center groups is necessary to stop people from telling the truth about what a bigot and conspiracy theorist Kirk was.

Good article, but the author could have just said they are all scared little snowflakes, and saved bandwidth.
Christianists are the worst.
I listen to lib. as well as conservative, and above all the difference is:
Conservative radio are blunt and spot-on, and generally (not always) have their feet planted on Earth. They're more like dogs.
Liberal radio is quiet and "mature", followed by passive aggressiveness like a cat in heat regurgitating vomit. Their only benefit is good music on occasion, and science unmolested by left-politics. The propaganda is educational on some level, because if they're saying it, then it's distortion day, opposite day, projection day, if not confession day.
