    Is there some sort of law that the people who complain loudest about censorship are also the quickest to threaten lawsuits to squash speech?https://twitter.com/EoinHiggins_/status/1438564421002047490 …

        At least Buckley had the sense not to whine about "free speech" ad nauseum. In fact, he was very open about wanting to suppress all kinds of speech, and thus his numerous attempts to muzzle Vidal, ridiculous as they were, couldn't be dismissed as hypocritical.

        Yes, because they only care about the censorship of their ideological allies and don't think freedom of speech applies to their critics, who they ironically try to silence while accusing them of the same thing.

        A good rule of thumb is that the people who complain the loudest - about anything - have the most fragile fee fee's

        It's really not that fascinating. When you combine bottomless bad faith with crass opportunism, the resulting concoction will ooze hypocrisies the same way soda bubbles.
