​In a world where free speech is under attack, it's easy to be distracted by a shiny new trailer or a familiar story we love. The release of the Mandalorian & Grogu trailer is a test. It's a test of our resolve. Will we remember what's at stake, or will we trade our principles for a "carrot on a stick"? ​This isn't just about a TV show or a movie. It's about a company that has used its power to silence a voice and has been accused of bending to outside pressure. They are hoping you will forget, that the excitement of a new trailer will make you "bend the knee" and ignore what has happened. But this is the moment to hold the line. ​We cannot allow powerful corporations to believe they can censor voices and then placate us with content. The First Amendment is not a commodity to be traded for entertainment. It is a fundamental right, and it is our responsibility to defend it. ​If you believe in the importance of free speech and holding corporations accountable, don't let this be a distraction. Let this be a moment to redouble your commitment to the cause.

-This is the way.
