"The First Amendment was designed to specifically protect political speech you don't agree with."

AND, it's the FIRST Amendment. I don't know about you, but whenever I put together a list, the most important item goes first. Just like the "keep and bear arms" is the SECOND Amendment.

"He's Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters with only a penis being the difference !!"

I'll take your word for that. No independent verification required!

Label the truth as hate and you can do anything you want.

“Who decides in advance, speech that is hate?”

Easy: The Left.

Anything that impacts them negatively is hate speech. Anything that helps them is not.

Dean was head of the DNC. As such, he was totally responsible for properly vetting Barack Obama.

IF Dean had done his job correctly, we NEVER would have had the 8 years of Obama Destruction Agony.

Actually, the Democrats have become the very bourgeoisie that the Communists railed against in the Communist Manifesto. The election of Donald Trump essentially was a ballot box "revolution" against the entrenched Left Establishment.

Dems are growing more totalitarian in nature.

Nope, it's just that losing at every level has made them desperate enough to occasionally slip up and admit what they've always stood for.

Completely disagree, look at their current leadership, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Tom Perez, Pelosi, Keith Ellison, - their party is moving hard left, there is no center. A JFK couldn’t get in to a Democrat convention.

They crush dissent, like Soviets, which is why there is an unhinged Trump Derangement Syndrome among their leaders. They will never seek compromise, and have become completely Stalinist in political goals. They are using violence, intimidation and control of the press. They are going after peoples’ livelihoods if they speak out. They have become the Soviets.
