I think people are finally starting to understand that public speech in the 21st century and public speech in the 20th century are not the same thing at all.
Tweeting your opinion in 2020 is analogous to going on national television and airing your opinion in 1990.
Would you feel comfortable airing a controversial opinion on national television? Would you feel comfortable that you still have your job and your reputation after going in front of the nation and saying "I think interracial marriages should be illegal"? No? Then don't tweet it because that's basically the same thing.
