Is that not the same for the Democrats?
The democrats seem as likely to choke down on speech, but it tends to be speech that represses others. The republicans choke down on speech that contradicts their vision of society or their personal moral compass. Although both contradict free speech absolutism, they are IMO fundamentally different.
If I were possessed of a religious faith that considered my name to be so holy that it must not be spoken, would a law against saying my name repress others, or would lack of that law repress me?
And most of all they don't seem to identify any and all differing views as "enemies" and so on.
