Left-leaning talk show host/writer/producer/filmmaker/comedian/musician Chip Franklin’s glowing Wikipedia page quotes WaPo’s Marc Fisher:

Not long ago, nearly all Americans, wherever they stood on the political spectrum, believed that information should flow freely. Then came liberal demigod Herbert Marcuse of the Frankfurt School with his concept of “repressive tolerance,” according to which all views from the left but no views from the right should be permitted.

Now we have freedom of speech only to the extent leftists have not finished consolidating power. Most everyone left of center seems to be okay with that.
