What is going on in this country? Freedom means nothing if it’s not the freedom to discuss ideas.

Actually, freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose - and by golly the GOP really wants us to be free.

We have to fight and fight and fight even more. We can't let the rich, powerful, and media and political elite take away what we know that this country can be.

America is not a free country, Marianne. Formerly comfortable folks are just now seeing what most others saw years ago.

Please try to win over more wealthy people and corporations because they’re the only ones with an actual voice right now. The political parties literally ignore us. I feel like a fool every time I write a letter to Congress.

Didn’t this bother you when doctors were being censored from YouTube/Facebook and even the Pres was being censored? It was a slippery slope and if you thought it would happen on only one side you were crazy. It’s wrong period but we needed to put a stop to it in the beginning.

Conservatives have always cancelled the voices of POC, LGBTQ, and empowered women. They wouldn't allow any positive representations of those groups since media began.
