Freedom of speech does not suppress speech. Censorship oppresses speech, and that is what you support. If everyone has free speech, everyone has the right to speak freely.

I do not support Hitler’s right to free speech or the right of his followers to parrot his genocidal nonsense.

If the Neo-Nazis get loud and frequent enough and the reasonable anti-Nazi people see the Mods are tolerating it, then the reasonable people leave, find a new platform, and the fascists cement their takeover.

It doesn’t take fascists anywhere near a majority for this to happen.

If being “value-natural” in the realm of speech means allowing Neo-Nazis to pollute your platform, then you aren’t being value neutral at all, are you?

With whatever Mod powers I have, I will oppose the spreading cancer of 21st-century fascism with every cell in my body.

Sound good?

I agree that you should not be allowed to threaten actual violence against people, because that violates the non-aggression principle.
