    I disagree since I think censorship can be desired when combatting hate speech. Maybe we just disagree how exactly we use the word ‘censorship’.

      Who would you have define hate speech in the US? SCOTUS?

      Many citizens may agree on the definition, but I wouldn’t trust our government to draw those lines.

        Many countries have working anti-hate speech laws. It’s not really a big problem for freedom of speech in those countries.
