I would think things like removing access to research which contained certain keywords could count, as well as things like ordering the removal of images of women and people of colour from military websites for example.

US universities are being punished for allowing free speech of individual members. The federal government is angling to get these groups to self-censor.

US citizens themselves restrict the free speech of other US citizens, the governing bodies don't have to do much.

Peaceful protest against Israel's destruction of Gaza will get you in trouble.

Research all the anti-LGBTQ legislation at the federal and state levels.

Remember, after all, the 1st amendment covers not only freedom of speech, but also assembly, the press, no establishment of religion, and the ability to petition the government. All of these things have been attacked and will continue to be attacked.

It’d been going on for a while: they had embedded people at Twitter, Facebook, etc. to act as liaisons to “protect truth” on subjects such as the origins of Covid, hunter Biden’s laptop, the senility of a certain commander in chief, the discussion on males participating in women’s sports, etc. the movement went so far as preventing speakers with opposing views to speak at universities. The idea of safe spaces itself is about censorship of ideas.

All in the name of stopping “misinformation”.
