Hollywood Resurrects "Committee for the First Amendment"
The brief firing of Jimmy Kimmel has triggered fear of censorship in Tinseltown.
A few days ago, NPR reported that Jane Fonda is leading a group of 550 Hollywood celebrities to resurrect the Soviet era “Committee for the First Amendment” to “defend the constitutional rights of actors and public figures from censorship.”
Since 2020, I have been subjected to content bans on YouTube and Amazon, and my posts have been consistently shadow-banned from Google and Facebook. I am therefore delighted to hear that Jane Fonda et al. are renewing their commitment to the First Amendment.
I hope they will demonstrate a will to defend the First Amendment rights of ALL AMERICANS, and not only the rights of their favorite cliques, espousing their favorite opinions.

I wouldn’t hold your breath waiting for it. These people have homonymous hemianopsia; they are hypocrites.
That committee, with those people, will never be about free speech for all, just free speech for those progressives they agree with.
