WATCH: Gov Kathy Hochul Says NY Is Conducting 'Surveillance Efforts' of 'Hate Speech' on Social Media

The First Amendment is still a thing, right? Because we're pretty sure it is.

Someone should probably tell New York Governor Kathy Hochul, though. She seems to have missed the memo.

The Daily Caller has more details:

Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said Monday that the state is “very focused” on collecting data from social media platforms as part of an effort to counter online “negativity” and “hate speech” after a rise in antisemitic attacks. 

Following a meeting with the state’s Jewish leaders, local law enforcement and federal authorities, Hochul spoke to the media to discuss the state’s efforts to combat hate crimes. 

“It’s painful to me as the governor of this great state — that has been known for its diversity, and how we celebrate different cultures, different religions, different viewpoints — it’s painful to see the cruelty with which New Yorkers are treating each other. Everywhere from college campuses, to our streets, to schools, to playgrounds; even as they’re entering their houses of worship,” Hochul said, noting that she “immediately deployed the State Police to protect our synagogues and yeshivas and mosques and any other place that could be susceptible to hate crimes or violence.”

Now, the issue of antisemitism is a problem -- in New York and elsewhere.

The solution, however, is not the government monitoring social media for 'hate speech', a policy that will surely be broadened and abused.

There should be. Because even a court overturning these policies does not deter them. See: Biden and unconstitutional student loan forgiveness.

Because that's how it always goes.

The tweet continues:

How about starting by arresting people who publicly deface property and break existing laws? Too simple?

Too simple, indeed.

It's not a good place. At all.

No, you should not.

Yes, it is. Understand where we are.

Yes, it's dead.

No, it is not okay.

This is what we'd do, too.

Only if Republicans do it.

Oh, our sweet summer child. They'll prosecute people for crimes of ungoodthink, and for hurting feelings, just not for actual crimes.

Since when have Democrats cared about the constitution?

Invariably. Every time.

Control the speech, control the people.

This policy needs to be launched into the sun, never to return. And the politicians that propose and enforce them need to be voted out of office.
