But donP#39;t let them dictate the End of Discussion.P#160;Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;In the age of Trump, a prejudice against free speech is spreading, fueled by a growing movement that believes ideas must be squelched to Pquot;protectPquot; people. The presidential election of 2016 should have been the clearest sign yet to the Left that trying to convince half the country to shut up is not the same as actually convincing them. And yet, in its wake, the impulse to stifle and punish Pquot;incorrectPquot; viewpoints, and the Pquot;deplorablesPquot; who voice them, is alive and well. ItP#39;s a vicious and ironic cycle, especially in academia, where dissenting speech is deemed dangerous and equated to violence -- while actual violence is justified to bully its proponents. From Berkeley to Middlebury, the mob is on the march. P#160;Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;Free speech isnP#39;t always pretty, but itP#39;s vital to the American way. We have to make America talk again. Plt;iPgt;End of DiscussionPlt;/iPgt; arms readers to find their voices and fight back against the death of debate.
