Stephen Miller said that calling Trump "authoritarian" is an "incitement to violence and terrorism," in what may be the Trump administration's clearest statement yet of its intent to criminalize left-wing dissent.
South Park needs to add Stephen Miller into the mix
That’s not true at all. You would need to see something more explicit. For example, and education purposes only, if someone were to say that “People should be violently targeting the families of corrupt politicians and other bad actors because they are more difficult to secure and because it would reduce the number of people willing to do shitty things for them for fear of pain or death,” then that could be interpreted as incitement to violence and terrorism. This form of terrorism is more difficult to counter because it easier to execute and less likely to result in capture and conviction, while also depleting security resources and opening gaps in the target’s defense.
Just calling someone authoritarian doesn’t quite cut it.
Thank the High Lord we live in a democracy that values and protects free speech so that we can discuss these types of things in a purely academic perspective.
