      If you don’t censor hate speech and allow malicious propaganda to be the default, is there really any value in letting it be accessible?

      The problem really is that the lenders of X’s debt probably have a significant influence and have a vested interest in recouping their money.

      Shutting down a nontheoretical fascist breeding ground VS. a theoretical slide to 1984.

      Isn’t this the lesser evilism I was fed for the last year? Isn’t this the trolley problem? This should be easy for the American left to get behind.

      Instead its “okay a little fascism is okay, as a treat” and its odd to me.

          Sorry, let me be clear. I was pointing out how if one’s strategy is to let fascist breeding grounds sit unmolested, one will need a lot more compensation than hypothetical slippery slopes. As stated, the trade off is hardly worth it.

          It’s the same style of rationale for why many leftists didn’t vote Harris.
