Hell, we can look at Voat and Gab as well for example of sites where absolute free speech as a principle has failed to result in any sort of good outcome.

Conveniently these sites are ignored or handwaved away or are somehow only because of censorship.

Yeah I used to use Voat right after /r/conspiracy started getting scared, things were civil and small scale and I had some fruitful discussions, that went to hell once the racist subs started getting hit.
