Do you think the government should censor incorrect or hateful speech and if not, why not?

The conversation is about Twitter, why are you bringing up the government.

It's a really simple question (yes or no, and just a single sentence about the reasoning if "no") and I hope the principle of charity can be extended when I say the discussion will come back to Twitter very quickly.

The OP hasn't provided their answer but I'd be interested in your answer too!

I wasn't talking about the government. Don't distract from the topic.

You were talking about free speech:

> Free speech in this case is code for saying anything without consequence and weaponizing it at morons.

I was just curious if the government's guarantee not to censor political speech is just as ill-advised. A quick "yes" would take about 5 seconds to give, or of not, just a short sentence about what the motivation is for keeping the government out of policing political speech. e.g. "If the government can suppress political speech, then..."

Doesn't seem like a huge ask for the curious!

Should you be allowed to yell something like "fire" in a crowded indoor space? That you want to murder the president? That, insert x culture or race, "should be exterminated"? Ultimately, I would like to hear about this government guarantee you speak of and what you believe/what is codified into whatever human construct that you think allows unlimited speech of any kind at any time aka your vision of 'free speech'.
