One of the central faiths in progressivism is the belief that peoples’ freedom extends to the belief in that which enables freedom, which is the capacity of benevolence of mind which presumably resides in us all.
Racists are nakedly corrupt warriors. If we didn’t have them, launch loops could proliferate around the equator. If people are voluntarily promoting racism, they’re surrendering advancements in society and risking the destruction of our species.
Free speech was given to the right in trust that the common draw of a beautiful future could permit a harmony if society. Indeed, free speech was given to us all in this spirit.
Inevitably, then, it becomes defined by its most dubious uses, and it is up to us to decide if we wish by our activities to submit to the classification.

Free speech does not equal hate speech. Racists and the far-right hijacked it to spread some of the vilest shit, such as advocating genocide of a certain group of people and race. And now because of this we have a surge of right-wing terrorism in the West due to idiots being inspired by these fringe talking points. Of course there will be a backslash as what they are doing is spreading blatant racism and hate, and it's dangerous

Here's a 'free speech' experiment. >if jews are white >white on white slurs can't be anti-semitic >we call jews honkies, cause they're (((white))) and their honkin noses >jews are now honkies HONK HONK
Word salad, bullshit. An attempt to hijack the truth to a political cause by suppressing opposite view points.
Kayden Davis
This. This kike is basically complaining that his antifa golems are not allowed to violently suppress dissident speech in addition to the harassment and intimidation they already do. He wouldn't complain about police presence being "wasted" on defending the Little Rock 9 from "free speech."
Incorrect. True freedom means having the freedom to express your hatred. I mean coloreds enjoy the right to spout anti-white hatred consequence free.

>imagine being surprised every time lefties show you who they really are
Problem is you morons associate EVERY muslim as ISIS, therefore it turns into "we need to kill ALL muslims". See where this is going? Morons influenced by that rhetoric then proceeds to go out to massacre people like what happened in Christchurch. There needs to be restrictions in place against hate speech.

Words can't hurt people you fucking faggots grow up. There use to be a time when saying the earth was round was considered "hate" speech against the church.
Owen Adams
And you think everyone who wants to cut off the immigration flood is a nazi who wants to kill 6 million jews and deserves to be violently suppressed, what's your point faggot?
Landon Young
>not strictly controlling speech means people will become right wing if only this were true
Adrian Moore
Free speech became a far right thing the instant someone on the right said something a leftist didn't agree with. The only solution to this is mass execution of leftists. That will happen in three to four generations.

Remember when MLK was organizing protests against NASA because it was a waste of money and we needed to give the money to retarded niggers instead?
We remember.

Your argument is reducing information, somehow leads to a better decision. Your calling me a moron? You will need a better argument than that shit for brains position.

Around the time that the internet became a popular platform for political discussion. Political speech needs to go through the corporate PC Jew filter first before it can be considered free speech.
>the granddaddy of socialism (and by proxy, communism) Socialism is technically older than Communism, in concept. Communism is just the ultimate expression of it.

>>A small number of Nazis protest somewhere, usually under the guise of freely expressing their opinions, and the police protect them under a mandate of upholding the First Amendment. By bolstering the narrative that speech should be protected at all costs, the police help smuggle white supremacist thought, policy, and action into the mainstream.
Translation: People who don't agree with what I think are expressing their thoughts to others and they might convince them. The law allows them do do this and it's wrong.
>>What I’ve found through my research and reporting is that free speech has become a rhetorical tool to elide something much more sinister: the state’s support and protection of white supremacists, and this country’s unwillingness to grapple with its racism.
Translation: This hit piece is a rhetorical tool to stifle free speech.
>>I’ve been disheartened to see not only conservatives and fascists but also liberals criticizing those who protest against the free speech rights of the most vile groups in America.
Translation: You cattle need to get in line!
>>Their argument usually harks back to the oft-misattributed quote: “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” Their reasoning makes clear that most of the USA has a deep misunderstanding of what free speech means.
Translation: I am trying to confuse you into thinking "free speech" shouldn't be free.
