Just heard a podcast a while back with Donald Jeffries author of American Memory Hole arguing why Joe McCarthy was a good senator and why Lincoln was one of the worst presidents ever due to his suspension of habeus corpus, freedom of speech and other overreaching policies that set new precedent. I tended to agree with his comments so when I see Trump compared to Lincoln I don't necessarily like it.
Sad that free speech has to be protected by more laws than the Constitution already calls for. But you have protect US citizen rights from the Marxist or they will just do what they were doing and worse.
It's ironic that RFK compares Trump to Lincoln when talking about free speech since Lincoln suspended habeas corpus. His actions violated the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of speech and the press. Many newspapers, including the New York Times, were shut down or censored for publishing dissenting views. Journalists and editors who criticized the government were arrested and detained without trial
I think one of you talented people should do a meme with Joe McCarthy saying "I told you so."
Indeed.
I've posted here about my grandfather telling me Joe was correct back when I was very young.

There's the overarching Lincoln that i think was overall very good.
But judged on policy point by point, there's some glaring issues.
I'm not a history buff, but I would think trying to mend fences on either side led to some sacrifices.
Hear, hear.

Meanwhile, Australian parliament is discussing and moving to pass a "misinformation" bill curtailing lawful speech.
Let's see how that works out, Australia.
