The government actually IS implementing more censorship by harshly penalizing people for saying wrongthink, such as criticism of immigration being a criminal matter in some parts of Europe, or the enforcement of "misgendering" laws that carry heavy fines.

Not in the US yet, right? Or are there state laws in some places that do that?

But I agree that looking at the trajectory in other countries, it is very easy to see how the Democratic Party could end up promoting and enforcing laws like that in the US.
