This is what happens when you don't club fascist idiots with baseball bats whenever you see them. Now tell me about how we have to protect their "free speech".
How would you know who the fascist is unless their free speech is protected?
Notice "free speech" is in scare quotes. The previous comment isn't suggesting that free speech should not be protected. But rather they referring to the fact that many fascists claim that to criticize them, or to refuse to promote their views is to stifle their free speech.
The same way my ilk once dealt with organized scabs, torture out of the first few and them shootup thei meating place.
Meating place sounds like some kind of porno
Autocorrect is clearly a whore so thats pretty accurate.
Why would you want to know who the fascists are? If you do then that means you gave them power. In the US fascists not only have free speech protections, they have greater free speech rights than anyone on the left. They were given- through federal legislation- the power to control all media outlets. Fascists will never allow leftists to have a platform. Centrists will never allow it either. There is no practical reason at all for the left to defend free speech for Nazis, yet they continue to do so.
To cancel them, obviously. Nobody who's a fascist should have a job
