Leftist's 'tongues are on the scale' in cheating U.S. of ideas that oppose theirs
Great example!
They have their "'tongues' on the scale"* to make their speech and their ideas crowd out or drown out or cause opposing speech and ideas to cower due to fear of physical reprisals or in deference to political correctness.
* Thumb on the scale
If you put your thumb on the scales, you try to influence the result of something in your favour.
A method of deception or manipulation that creates an unfair advantage for the swindler, likened to a merchant holding a thumb on the scale when weighing goods for sale, therefore increasing the weight and price.
The left has demolished the "arena of ideas". The absolute best example of that is how they respond when a black votes for a republican. The Congressional black caucus refused admission to a black conservative congressman. From what I can see the left is about ideas but not about opposing ideas and I gave 2 perfect examples.
