The Criminalization Of Politics

This legislation is yet another part of the left's ongoing effort to criminalize politics, to make normal conservative opinions unspeakable.

If you're against the invasion occurring at the southern border, if you believe some of the illegal aliens coming in are criminals, or might take jobs from American citizens of all races, the left says you are engaging in hate speech against foreigners. 

If you believe abortion is murder, the left says that is hate speech against women. 

If you believe marriage is between a man and a woman, the left says you are engaged in homophobic hate speech. The list goes on and on and it's growing by the day. 

Here's the latest example: In an increasing number of schools, left-wing bureaucrats insist that if little Johnny calls someone by the wrong pronoun, that's an assault and hate speech, and Johnny can be thrown out of school.

We've already seen how parents going to school board meetings were targeted by the FBI as "domestic terrorists." 

For years, we've been encouraging more civic engagement at the local level. But when parents show up to complain about the garbage the radical left is pushing on our kids, the left deploys Big Government to shut us up.

The left isn't even pretending to go after "Russian disinformation" any more. It's all about "domestic terrorism" now. And of course, the left is very selective about "hate crimes." It only goes one way.

Concerned parents at school boards are "domestic terrorists," but thousands of looters and rioters are "social justice activists."
