Donald Trump threatening Bruce Springsteen

 So, now Trump is talking about investigating liberal celebrities who endorsed Harris and are openly critical of him. THis comes after springsteen in particular blasted him during a concert. And let's just say, this is an attack on the freedom of speech. Look, we dont live in a country where we all sit around and praise dear leader. This isnt russia, this isn't north korea, this isn't china. Maybe trump wants it that way, and he's certainly trying his darndest to break american democracy, but yeah, that's also why we keep to keep criticizing him, and to call out crazy crap like this. THis is DANGEROUS. He's trying to turn us into a banana republic. And if he can go after bruce springsteen he can go after any of us. 

We've already seen this with Hasan Piker. Like, being detained 2 hours in an airport for criticizing israel. And I admit, hasan's coverage is a little borderline. Like, I myself, I've always been critical of the free palestine movement for its rabid obsession with the subject and the fact that the most extreme elements do basically seem to want to dismantle israel and seem to have genocidal aims that are sympathetic to hamas. I admit that. At the same time, censoring people could have a chilling effect which affects legitimate criticism. Despite being critical of the free palestine movement, I've also been critical of israel, because let's face it, they're commiting genocide. And while i support their right to exist and dont want the state of israel to be destroyed, I dont want them genociding others either. Ya know? That's a pretty reasonable stance in my opinion. But, that's another thing trump administration is doing. They're seemingly trying to crack down on speech critical of israel and link it to terrorism. This is also a literal heritage foundation plan, and that's scary. 

Like really, Trump and his administration are a fundamental threat to free speech and the bedrocks of American democracy. They are. And in any sane world, he would've been in jail after January 6th, 2021. But the dems dropped the ball on that too, the republicans played cover, and now they are trying to break democracy to be loyal only to him. This is scary, man. This is scary.
