Ten years ago today, I was hit by a car while crossing the street. I had just finished a tough pre-election week at CDT, working on nonpartisan election protection focused on voting technology. Please never assume a car will see you or stop.

Gao Zhen, a Chinese artist jailed for satirizing Mao, wrote from prison: “Once a dragon slayer, now imprisoned, he has no regrets for mocking the wicked.”
I wrote at @SpeechFuture about the meltdown over Mbappé’s Mao comment and the choice to apologize for “mocking the wicked.”

One thing that’s important to remember in this Mbappé controversy is that this is *not* just about “offense.” That sanitizes the truth. People are jailed for criticizing Mao.
Some issue groveling apologies for financial gain. Others suffer in prison.
