Bad news: Gen Z is more likely to approve of censorship of freedom of speech than in 2018. According to Pew two-thirds of Democrats want government or big tech to censor speech.
Roughly half of U.S. adults (48%) now say the government should take steps to restrict false information, even if it means losing some freedom to access and publish content, according to the survey of 11,178 adults conducted July 26-Aug. 8, 2021. That is up from 39% in 2018. At the same time, the share of adults who say freedom of information should be protected – even if it means some misinformation is published online – has decreased from 58% to 50%.
Terrible news for the country and for young people. The ability to express oneself is the most basic of human freedoms. Young Americans are heading into a new dark age. In many ways, they have themselves to blame. Stop voting for Democrats would be a good start.
