Sensible sentiments all well written.

Like you. I never thought this would ever happen: presidential pardons to protect free speech

I suppose we all need protecting in the US now, when even speaking the truth is grounds for persecution.

Academia is no better and is the feeding grounds for the system you speak of. Tenure (insider white guys) does nothing but protect the bullies. Thought to allow academics to speak the truth when in fact it’s an old boys club that excludes and chastises anyone that disagrees with status quo. Needs to go. White men 😡
