Universities censor all the time, usually termed as a public safety issue. However the violent people are the students who are encouraged by the administration to go for disruption and violence. That the Capitol riot seems to have shocked the Left, as cartoonist Scott Adams noted, may have an interesting effect. Because after 8 months of democrat riots, with no objections from the DNC & their media, the Left now has a reality check, finally, as do their Globalist supprter$.
Anyway, john, for the immediate future, we will be forced to keep our eyes on the economic horizons as Kamala Joe inherits the Crown. If they do well it will blue skies forever for you. If they suck and do it very badly, I predict, at the least, an economic split. Meanwhile, it's the Tampa Buchaneers v the NO Saints. Saints are now at 6-0.

To censor someone you need the power to imprison or kill them if they say something you don't like, so no company is doing any censoring, some of them may want to but none of them are able to because only governments have enough power to do that. I'm not saying companies don't have any power at all because they do, and sometimes they use the power they do have unwisely, and that's a problem, but the solution is not to give even more power to the government because it already has quite enough power thank you. So what is the solution? I don't know, there may not be one, there is not always a solution to every problem and that's why we live in an imperfect world and probably always will, but we should try to make the imperfections as small as possible. And if history has taught us anything it's that giving even more power to the government, which is already the most powerful institution in our society, will not make the world perfect. > Which universities are censoring for the "safety of the students" No universities are doing any censoring either and for exactly the same reason, although I do think threatening to expel students for what they say is a very unproductive thing to do. And I think the idea that university students are such delicate snowflakes that they need protection from harsh language or exposure to views different from their own is ridiculous; they're not gonna be in college for their entire life and sooner or later they're going to have to toughen up if they want to live in the real world. So that's a problem, but the world is full of problems and some of them we just have to live with. I know one thing for sure: a government edict banning such a practice would cause more problems than it solved. > We had 7 months of sporadic riots and the liberals (which I sometimes side > with) and now they freak out when conservatives targets the capital. If you are not freaked out by a murderous mob of Stormtrumper zombies staging a coup d'état by attacking the Capital Building which contained the Vice President and every single member of the House and Senate in an attempt to overturn the Constitution of the USA and a free election to keep their "Dear Leader" in power indefinitely then there is something very seriously wrong with you!
