Turns out there are plenty of things more worthy of fighting for than enabling fascists and terrorists to lure in vulnerable people and harass marginalized people

    americas reasoning for allowing for all forms of free-speech isn’t because we think all sorts of free-speech are worthy of actually being allowed. It’s because we do not trust our own government to apply this ruling without bias. having a rule at all allows for the potential for it to be abused. imagine if Desantis is elected and banned the use of non traditional pronouns. Basically just think of trump or Desantis being in charge of deciding what can or cant be said. Do we like the outcome? I’d rather idiots be legally allowed to say whatever they want and have them be publicly shamed.
