Tell me about all the people the Republicans are firing because of free speech. Tell me about the statutes and paintings that Republicans are tearing down. Tell me the internet censorship the Republicans are promoting.
Ha, how do you know it's mostly registered Democrats doing all of that stuff? How do you know that they wouldn't cuss at the names of most well known Democrats when brought up? I see nothing wrong in taking down controversial statues and paintings, especially after locals are allowed to vote to decide to do so.
I'm sure Republicans would gladly do their share of censorship on the Internet whenever possible, and I certainly wouldn't be opposed to it. Just like I'm sure Republicans wouldn't allow anyone to erect posters in their front yards promoting Marxist or Socialist candidates.

You obviously have no concept of how financial, or post-industrial capitalism operates; the wealth of the "billionaires'' (you probably think of them as caricatures in top hats and spats) is actually represented by the common stock of individual enterprises -- many of them founded by the likes of Jeff Bezos (Amazon),Bill Gates (Microsoft) or the late Steve Jobs (Apple).
The wealth created by these foresighted individuals can't be directly confiscated (although a couple of idiots like Elizabeth Warren are trying hard). it can only be recognized when the holder either passes from the scene (estate or inheritance taxes) or sells the stock at a gain. And any attempt to force a sale would diminish the value, thereby damaging the institutions (charitable philanthropies, colleges, hospitals and pension funds) which often hold much of that stock.
Learn a little more about the workings of a mature economy; and you might develop a little maturity of your own.
Yep, this little guy got Amazon and Apple stock himself
As an example Democrats are already using California gun laws as a template for federal gun laws, So seeing California democrats pushing social media bias in police hiring is very real
That's exactly the goals of our friends on the left in the US.
Nothing wrong with that as long as the government isn't directing it as it does in China. Republicans should likewise feel free to censor as much as they want on the part of the Internet space they control.

It's terribly funny you reply to a post about republicans wanting to kill as many wolves as they can, with a reply about gun laws. Nice way to deflect what I wrote.
I can play your game too, and proclaim that the new law in Idaho is just a template for what republicans want to do nationwide: exterminate all wildlife.
