Should everyone have to be non-anonymous on Twitter?
Moment 177
Former governor Mike Huckabee came out hard on anonymous “cowards” on social media…
I hope @elonmusk will insist that all Twitter posters use their real names & not be keyboard cowards hiding behind silly little sophomoric screen names. Be man enough or woman enough (if you even know what that is) to stand by what you say! If you can’t own it don’t say it.
What he says here rings strongly with most people, but it’s dead wrong, and misunderstands how free expressions functions.

This is how some people lost their jobs for having their real names on Facebook or Twitter and if somebody didn’t like something they said they were called racist and privilege.
Huckabee is a fool and possibly an establishment hacks, a Republican who isn't a RINO but is serving the interests of powerful special interests and not the people. He's talked a good game but so has the Republican party and yet even when they're in charge the Left is able to push their agenda ahead. Trump was the first real road block to what was the status quo which is why establishment Republicans were ready to help the Democrats get rid of him.
I do not trust Huckabee. He's either a fool to not ser the dangers of forcing everyone to expose themselves to speak or he knows and wants to get rid of anonymity in order to get people who challenge the narratives from either party to shut up out of fear of reprisal
