More and more these days I notice bigots run and scream censorship when one of their primary targets grow strong enough to speak out against them...
The problem is, Freedom of Speech, does not mean freedom from criticism.
Sure you are free to say incredibly hateful discriminatory things, but you better be prepared for the consequences when people criticise you and take action to protect the victims of such hate speech...
If your not prepared to deal with the consequences of expressing freedom of speech, you'd better keep your opinions to yourself.
Freedom of speech is a two way street...
Deal with it.
I've seen it too.
I think it's just another counter punch in what a lot of people see as a bruising political battle. The leaders that preach hate against us, don't really hate us. They need us to instill fear and anger in their followers, because scared and angry people are less likely to question and more likely to follow.
This "censorship" thing is just one more way to make people angry.
