From the Harvard Law Record,
Usually, we at Harvard are more than happy to see Yale students make fools of themselves on camera. The video that emerged this week of Yale students screaming down one of their professors might make for a good laugh, if its implications were not quite so serious. It’s a scene we’ve seen played out far too often at college campuses in recent years, and it deserves to be called by what it is: a nascent form of fascism.
The article includes a ‘nifty’ chart suggesting some acts that are fascist and some that are not. As the author points out, it is not meant to be exhaustive but it does set a stage for defining behavior and what differentiates expression in the form of free speech from “expression” designed to silence or punish those with whom you disagree.
