This is nonsense. In war, is it hypocritical to bomb the enemy but not your own side? Of course not. Propaganda is a weapon, you deploy weapons against your enemies and you protect your own people from your enemy's weapons.

Foreign adversaries do not have free speech rights in the United States.

We aren't at war. Propaganda in peacetime and bombs at any time are so disanalogous it is comical.

You win a war of ideas by presenting better ideas, not by censoring bad ideas.
