She should do the Bari Weiss thing and say she's being silenced because they're scared of her speaking truth.

The same Washington Post that reported with 100% confidence that the shooter was definitely, absolutely trans? And still hasn’t redacted their lies?

I'd like to see how sharing someone's own public words is disparaging their memory. Isn't that how he'd want to be remembered? Did he recant those words? Because if it is wrong to quote him, that implies those words shame his memory. But then why is it shameful to quote him, but not to speak the words in the first place?

Years ago I was banned from the politics subreddit for quoting the constitution articles on treason. This was during Trump's first term.
