LETTER: In response to Camp’s ‘The left should embrace free-speech again’
(02/27/21 9:26pm)
Opinion Columnist Emma Camp wrote an article last week decrying campus progressives’ “authoritarian” concerns with free speech. I agree more broadly with the need to reject sympathy for authoritarian regimes. To characterize the leftist desire to deplatform hateful speech as an authoritarian fear of disagreement, however, is to miss the point entirely.
