Watch every "free speech" advocate, online and offline both, be either completely mute on this, or wholeheartedly support it for a variety of bullshit reasons. I can already predict some: "He was a Russian asset", "commies are ebil muh horodomoru", "they are being invaded and need security", "oh yeah well putin personally murders dissidents with a machine gun".

Poor guy. He's likely screwed

Amazing how free speech advocates will defend nazis all day, but won't say a single word to defend communists. Very telling.

That's because communists are Asian and thus not people

Not that related, but my favourite quote to date is:
