There’s a certain faction of Americans that simply think it’s fine to censor people for having pro-Palestinian views. They won’t admit it yet. Right now they torture logic to argue that those views are not just opinions but part of a criminal conspiracy, or that non-citizens have no free speech rights whatsoever, or that the government probably has secret evidence of much worse stuff that they’re not sharing with us for national security reasons. In a week or two all those rationales will fall away, and there will be a rising chorus of voices saying simply that if you criticize the Israeli government you’re a terrorist and have no rights. And it won’t be limited to non-citizens.

it's crazy how quickly things escalate. freedom of speech should be for everyone, no matter the view. hope people start seeing the bigger picture soon 🙏
