Now they disparage open expression as a danger to democracy and minorities.

People on the left once viewed free speech as sacrosanct and championed speaking truth to power. But over the past decade, and especially the past five years, I’ve watched my party distance itself from the values and principles I hold dear. I turned 18 in 2003 and have never voted for a Republican. I created the cartoon to help sort out my feelings of increasing political alienation from the left.
