>Reminds me how in Soviet Russia you couldn't read certain books or risk prosecution, but were of course required to condemn them, in public if possible. Which led to entire groups of politicians, artists, authors, condemning books which they weren't even legally allowed to read. Absolute fucking insanity.

The Twitter-driven mobs forcing people to retract statements and put out new, "correct" ones are merely online versions of Communists' struggle sessions.
