<<Liberals are unique in shouting down opposing views.>> Do you consider the ACLU a liberal organization or a conservative one? My impression is that conservatives hate it. Does Skokie ring a bell? The liberal ACLU defended a Neo-Nazi group's right to march in the predominantly Jewish town of Skokie, Illinois. Because, abhorrent as the views were to the liberals in the ACLU, they knew that the First Amendment protected the right to express them. A couple of small town newspaper editors (one was from Texas, I don't recall where the other was from) were fired for expressing the view that it was cowardly of Bush not to return to Washington immediately after the attacks. I suspect the firings weren't done by liberals or to cater to liberal views. Possibly you are confusing PC-left and identity politics, as categories, with the category 'liberal.'
