We're not talking about having an ability to have an idea, we're talking about responsibly deplatforming hate speech.

I can say the same of you and your naive belief that the fascists will be beaten by triumph, will, and logic.

Antifa commit hate speech per your definition and conduct violence, should we also ban anticapitalist content? Where does it end?
