I'm pleasantly surprised to see this statement. The ACLU has really lost its way lately, shunning the principles it used to embrace and just parroting progressive talking points on many issues.
The ACLU has explicitly altered its case selection guidelines away from content-neutral rights protection in order to avoid protecting the rights of white supremacists or other prejudiced individuals.
Moving forward, when deciding whether to take a free speech case, the organization will consider "factors such as the (present and historical) context of the proposed speech; the potential effect on marginalized communities; the extent to which the speech may assist in advancing the goals of white supremacists or others whose views are contrary to our values; and the structural and power inequalities in the community in which the speech will occur."
People keep on saying this, but there doesn't appear to have been any actual changes at the ACLU? They also just recently defended the "F** Biden" person: https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/court-vacates-charges-ro...
