Letters: Voters must turn back GOP tide of censorship
"Donald Trump and his "Make America Great Again" team want to seek out and punish anyone who speaks out against Charlie Kirk. Kirk, a self-described campus rabble rouser, constantly shielded his divisive, incendiary, reckless vitriol beneath the mantle of "free speech." But free, irresponsible hate speech has its consequences. While I don't advocate for assassination or the murdering of those with whom we disagree, I understand its genesis."
"I know how much we love our content on Disney and Hulu. However, allowing Donald Trump to dictate our right to free speech while he continues his hateful and divisive rants on Fox is intolerable. Send a message. Cancel your subscriptions until corporate America can grow a backbone to stand up and fight for our constitutional rights. We are America. Defend your Constitution."
"Tyler Johnson should have used the word 'them' instead of 'we' in his article, in my opinion. They or them, the 'digital titans,' invented the devices that 'we,' the rest of us, use willingly or unwillingly. They are the ones who are constantly, it seems, wanting 'we' to upgrade our applications or 'apps'. It is them who are reluctant to monitor content."
Donald Trump and his Make America Great Again team are portrayed as seeking to punish critics of Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk is described as a campus rabble-rouser who shields divisive, incendiary vitriol under claims of free speech. Free, irresponsible hate speech is said to have consequences, and some express understanding of its genesis while rejecting advocacy of violence. Voters are urged to turn the red tide in 2026. Consumers are encouraged to cancel Disney and Hulu subscriptions to pressure corporate America to defend constitutional free-speech rights. The digital titans are identified as responsible for devices, app upgrades, and reluctance to monitor content. Newsom should reject an overreaching bill.
