Read 'The Open Society and Its Enemies', by Karl Popper, vol. 2, chapters 24 and 25.

(Has nothing to do with Soros, however, nor does my comment.)

That essay doesn't say what you think it does. I suggest actually reading it. Today's left are the ones abusing their freedom of speech to advocate for the abolition of free speech. You do it on this website all the time.

I read it, Chipit. Rather than drag the discourse down the PoD, consider that you've been brainwashed by right-wing misinformation propaganda - like what's in the article - and have thus repeated here one of their talking points. The Color of Change PAC is not a problem. The problem is the 1%, which you support when you try to redirect attention to racist right-wing misinformation propaganda. And you still have freedom of speech, unless you live in Russia, China, North Korea, Texas, or similar countries. No need to be so paranoid. Support the 99%, not the 1%.

The one spreading propaganda here is you. Your spiel is too practiced. It is today's left who is solidly on the side of the political establishment in DC and the ghouls on Wall Street. When you've got Citibank and Exxon and other major corps as sponsors, whose side are you really on?

The Color of Change PAC states, and I quote, "Policing is a violent institution that must end". There's no horse whispering with that, no claims it means something else. They want to end the police, period.

consider that you've been brainwashed

Comforting to think that, isn't it? Unfortunately for you I have read about brainwashing and it's not at all what the communists did to our POWs. Did you know some of them actually stayed after the war?
