[This is Pt 2 of 3]
Pt 2 explores the use of state power to police speech & expression around Charlie Kirk.
I discuss the difference between ‘cancel culture’ & the govt policing people’s views. We talk about the forced writing of Kirk’s name on Starbucks cups, the forced lowering of flags, the doxxing database and more.
