I saw this survey as well. It's not really the fault of Democrats or Republicans in this group for why this group has such illiberal views. For one illiberal view 60% of Democrats have on 1A, 40% of Republican youth hold the same view. For one illiberal view 60% of Republicans have, the Democratic kids hold it at a rate of 40%.

There is one thing I agree with such "illiberal" views. I think its something worth trying but I am not passionate about it. That view is that maybe there should be some sort of experimentation with "fairness doctrines" on college campuses.

The events would be the same on the other side. Just go look, not hard to find.
I don't understand this statement.

Yeah, not surprised but conservatives want CNN and MSNBC shut down because of their content. They want all liberal protesters shot, etc. They don't believe in free speech either.

"both sides", right?

I agree this poll is somewhat disturbing (though it has some misleading wording). I think the point he's getting at is literally just look at the polls of how conservatives think liberal colleges should be shut down or how protests by Black Lives Matter should not be allowed to occur (think what you will of BLM, but they are also protected by the 1st Amendment). #bothsides

For every anti-fa attack, it appears that there is a state legislature advocating state-sponsored terrorism against their political opponents. The result was the attack in Charlotteville.
