That website has a list of professors they claim were interfering with, educating against or are openly against free speech.

https://www.professorwatchlist.org/tags/anti-1st-amendment

I just randomly clicked one of the professors in that list:

- "Shaviro has been suspended after he posted on Facebook that it would be better for people to kill their political opponents than to protest them. In a now-deleted post, Shaviro wrote:"

- “So here is what I think about free speech on campus. Although I do not advocate violating federal and state criminal codes, I think it is far more admirable to kill a racist, homophobic, or transphobic speaker than it is to shout them down.”

That's straight from the website, which may or may not be accurate or true. The way it looks, is still about the way it looks given the larger context of the rest of its post.

It's particularly relevant given the recent events.
