Commentary
Leftists often claim to support free speech, and their honey-coated words may fool you. So here’s a simple guide to avoid getting sucked into the totalitarian brand of “free speech.”

It was never about free speech. It was led by Marxists to give free rein to Marxism. It was never meant to support free expression for non-Marxists.
