You didn't have the internet when you were young, or probably for a good chunk of your life. Words have helped galvanize groups that are calling for bloodshed because of political beliefs. It was words that led to January 6th. I believe in free speech and don't think anybody should die for it, but they were building gallows in front of the US Capitol during their insurrection, so please spare the phony pretense and pearl clutching. Or just sticks and stones your way to a freedom march sometime, and hope like hell some car doesn't drive into it. Just by the very argument of gun control means the left isn't looking towards violence, but the right is pretty radicalized against both anything moderate or limits their gun access. Any guesses on what party was also against limiting the spread of disinformation on the internet and social platforms? Any clues as to why, especially since it's just words? Why does turnip regularly tweet violent rhetoric?
