As the famous xkcd quoted from others in the alt-text:

… defending a position by citing free speech is sort of the ultimate concession; you’re saying that the most compelling thing you can say for your position is that it’s not literally illegal to express.

i honestly worry about the “let them fight” scenario. we saw how this played out in the house: those furthest to the right won because they have the least to lose and the most to gain

every fight that goes unchecked risks their further radicalization. not to mention the spill over of violence

I agree it could play out that way. But perhaps we don’t really have enough data points to make an accurate prediction and there will be some healthy surprise on how structurally sound the whole GOP mess is.

i think we have enough data from the other times in history fascism has sprung up. my read is that it never plays out well when it go unchecked, even if they’re fighting each other.

( another very current news example: fox news racing even further to the right so they don’t lose ratings to news max. hopefully the lawsuit goes well, but the government should really be investigating what laws may have been broken. letting them duke it out till one goes down will not end well. )

Two completely different “GOP attempts to suppress political opponents” stories break on the same day. Try and tell me it’s not party policy.

They’ll be renaming it to Books-A-Dozen by the time this is all over.

This is idiotic on Desantis’ part. Bet there will now be an upsurge of defiant protestors wearing 45 paraphernalia at all his events from now on and what’s he going to do? Nothing? He’s proven himself weak, which means he’ll get trounced in the primary in 2024. Ban them? Even if he’s successful, he’ll just encourage all the Magats to come out in force to vote him down. I think Desantis is ultimately screwed in 2024 unless TFG kicks the bucket between now and then. And even then, MAGA likely won’t forget.

The source of the video is Laura Loomer. She’s being accused of staging the incident because the security guard is wearing a trump bracelet.

The book store, mall, desantis, and police department have still refused to comment.

It’s going to be a fun primary season.
