It's not a hard thing to figure out, honestly. I'll vigorously defend your right to express your opinion. That doesn't mean I have to agree with you and I may disagree loudly.

Aggressive social conformism is just everyone disagreeing with you, loudly. It's the kind of thing we should be doing to racists, etc.
