I actually believe in a high bar for regulating speech. But there are words and symbols that invoke violence and are hate-fueled and have a real impact on those on the receiving end. Adjudicating this is always very context specific. Deliberate lies and misinformation for political or monetary gain, bearing in mind the public good, should not be beyond question and sanction.
