But it’s Trump who is the real fascist.

Quote:Some of the motivating forces behind the 2020 elections could prove to be sinister for the First Amendment and media outlets the left hates.

The founder of Data for Progress, a far-left think tank that endorses socialism and the Green New Deal, wants the next Democrat president to silence Fox News. He shared a study done by two Columbia University researchers that claimed judges who watched Fox delivered harsher criminal sentences based on racial motivation.

Sean McElwee, cofounder of Data for Progress, tweeted out, “The next Democratic presidential administration must dismantle Fox News.” Even New York Magazine admitted that this was a little extreme, saying, “as awful as Fox News might be, would be incompatible with small-d democratic government.”

Hallmark of leftists is silencing any speech they disagree with. No real shocker here.

They can't stand that Tucker Carlson is the king of cable news, and little brian stelter averages about 5 retweets.

"Data for Progress".. lol, another one of those things were you put a couple words together and it actually means the opposite of what you think. They don't want progress, they want regression.

Exactly. A college campus is simply a microcosm of what egg head liberals wish the country could be. Free speech---unless you disagree with the hard left administration view.

I'm sure they'll spin it as something like "ending hate speech".

Anything them deem as being counter to their correct think will be considered hate speech.

They'll never come right out and admit it's pure censorship.

This. The more speech the better.


I can't stand a lot of the liberal's "news" sources, either. Like Bill Maher, Colbert or girls on trampoline guy, but that doesn't mean I want them silenced...

It also exposes the fact that they are likely a scam. Data is data, it doesn't have an ideological bend. What if/when they crunch the data, and it doesn't come out to progress?

You understand this is saying they STILL need to eliminate Fox News after removing O'Really and a few others never made a dent.
