New York PostSEP 2022
Designating a decentralized ideological movement as a terrorist organization sets a dangerous precedent that threatens First Amendment protections and could be used as a pretext to target political opponents.

This unprecedented step could infringe on free speech rights and criminalize ideological beliefs rather than specific criminal acts.
