US Politics

Just had a mind-bending exchange with someone on facebook. Over the last 10 months he's gone from a lockdown critic to full blown conspiracy theorist, which has also led him to believe that Trump has had the election stolen from him and that Amazon, Apple, Google etc pulling support for Parler is an attack on free speech.

I pointed out that Hitler was also banned from public speaking in 1925, and asked whether he would have supported his right to free speech at that time. His response in full:

Tbh, in 1925, without a crystal ball, I would have been very much against silencing Hitler.
In 1925 you had no idea what Hitler would entail, he was perfectly entitled to his voice.
When this all comes out in the wash, you will look back at Biden and DT and the history books will record DT as the hero and Biden as the villain. I know that seems incomprehensible to you now.
You only see history when you look back in hindsight.
