> Power is profoundly addictive and corrupting.

I would argue that a small taste of power corrupted the left.

When they started censoring conservative views, banning conservative speakers on campuses, "no platforming", they were not defending freedom.

Indeed.

The comment I responded to, however, was partisan and I was simply adding balance.
