Lets say I have a platform that someone used it to gather support for and planning some sort of attack on my local democracy.

Lat's say they're successful and they can impose their own policies that do not include free speech.

I'm pretty short on free speech now...

It's hard to ignore that.

So you support the abolition of free speech to preemptively keep a hypothetical free speech abolitionist group from abolishing free speech?

If I'm running a platform and it's mine, I'm not impacting anyone's right to free speech... they have no such right on my platform.
