the few are mostly very neutral in the first place

i have some fierce points on certain areas but i think the whole thing is you drift to the center of the compass if you honestly evaluate what is important

i never understood either side because they were always so unrealistic, always missing the "and then"

In the US, the First Amendment phrase "freedom of speech" is prefaced by "Congress shall make no law ... abridging the" meaning it was not seen as a positive right that others owe you but rather a negative right against government interference.

the entire edifice of "hate speech" is an offense against civil society, it is literally fascism, to dictate to people what business they may do (as opposed to everyone is the government, as in communism)

yet the whole western world has turned into literal nazi germany at this point
