Former Ninth Circuit judge Alex Kozinski has reentered public discourse via a Wall Street Journal piece in which he conjectures about the potential cancelation of U.S. elections. His article relies heavily on an anecdote from Romania's election history and employs right-wing talking points regarding free speech issues in America, particularly referencing the Missouri v. Biden case. However, critics highlight that his arguments lack depth and credible context, and point to his history of promoting conspiracy theories as undermining his current claims. The article raises concerns about the implications of his reemergence in political commentary.
Kozinski's recent article in the Wall Street Journal speculates, with little evidence, that the U.S. elections could be canceled, reflecting a concerning trend of conspiracy thinking.
His anecdote about Romanian elections serves more as a springboard for right-wing narratives than as a realistic analysis of American democratic processes.
There is a genuine problem with free speech in the U.S., but Kozinski's claims about government coercion regarding certain topics lack substance and context.
Kozinski's history of promoting conspiracy theories post-retirement raises questions about his motives and credibility in discussing free speech and democratic integrity.
