Finally, Sessions denounced the suppression of free speech as antagonistic towards American values.
“This has gone too far. It must end. This country protects noisome assembly, immoderate speech, and provocative speech. Whether left or right. Suppression of competing voices is not the American way.”
Free Speech in America
Over the past year, concerns about free speech in America have increased. Many right-leaning people in this country believe that their left-wing counterparts are actively and systemically working to silence them.
Conservatives have cited social media as the main weapon which is employed to shut down views which dissent from the political left. Right-leaning Americans furthermore report experiences of drastic algorithm declines, account suspensions, video demonetizations, shadowbanning, etc.
Last month, a new report detailed the all-time highs of conservative censorship on various social media outlets. Progressive groups and big-tech companies are documented as working together to silence contrasting viewpoints. Notably, their ultimate endgame involved defeating President Trump and gradually regaining political and ideological dominance.
