It's not an empty taunt at all. Leftists would have normal people believe they are defenders of "democracy" even though their candidate for president is not the by product of democracy. Either they are dimwits or they think everyone else is.
You can't stand it, can you? Kamala Harris is the democratically chosen Democratic Party candidate by every rule in the nation. It's the right that are trying every sort of electoral chicanery they can conceive of, all over the country. Donald Trump himself admitted that if ever it was easy for everybody who was eligible to vote to do so, "you’d never have a Republican elected in this country again,” Trump said during an appearance on Fox & Friends
We also learned recently that Zuckerberg "regrets" caving to pressure by the Biden administration to censor content on his platform. This must be leftists supporting free speech right? Again either leftists are dimwits or they believe everyone else is.
They were asked to suppress only certain posts about Covid-19, including humor and satire. The administration has said, "When confronted with a deadly pandemic, this Administration encouraged responsible actions to protect public health and safety. Our position has been clear and consistent: we believe tech companies and other private actors should take into account the effects their actions have on the American people, while making independent choices about the information they present.”
It is a fact that RF itself took a similar stance, instituting a separate forum for COVID-19 posts when it was in full swing, and editing them for some content that might seem to be mis-information.
