"John Kerry isn’t the only one bashing the First Amendment. An anti-free speech movement is rapidly growing in the country led by law professors and supported by politicians, reported the New York Post."
"John Kerry called the First Amendment “dangerous” and “outdated” while speaking at the World Economic Forum on Sept 24.
"During his WEF speech, Kerry said that free speech is a “major block” and suggested that The United States of America should have a “truth arbiter,” reported the New York Post.
He said, “You know, there’s a lot of discussion now about how you curb those entities in order to guarantee that you’re going to have some accountability on facts, etc. But look, if people only go to one source, and the source they go to is sick, and, you know, has an agenda, and they’re putting out disinformation, our First Amendment stands as a major block to be able to just, you know, hammer it out of existence. So what we need is to win the ground, win the right to govern, by hopefully winning enough votes that you’re free to be able to implement change.”
"Kerry blamed social media as the main source for his anti-free speech view.". . .
