Octopus of Big Tech is strangling America

So why did Big Tech, the media, the publishing industry, a host of corporations, and a growing number of campuses double down on censoring some free speech? Why blacklist, censor, and cancel thousands of people now?

True, Trump gave them an opening when some rogue supporters vandalized the Capitol. But the real reason is that the Left has long been eager to curtail the speech of those it opposes. Last week simply offered members of the Left the sort of perfect crisis that they determined should never go to waste.

With a defeated Trump on the way out, and with control over the levers of government, leftists abruptly settled all their old scores. Their aim was not just to humiliate opponents but to curtail opponents ability to organize against them.

Democrats applauded the censorship. And why not? In a few weeks, they will likely seek to end the Senate filibuster. In revolutionary fashion, they may try to admit new states, pack the Supreme Court, and end the Electoral College moves designed to emasculate their conservative opposition.
