Them? That's your inference. What you are doing is making a bad faith argument which others have called out. It's a common tactic by people who are trolling or looking to derail a discussion.

There is nothing wrong with my views on freedom of speech. You've made nothing but generalized comments and accusations - and provided no meaningful discussion or answers. The second I pressured you to provide specifics you shifted to an extreme accusation to change the topic. It's textbook. I'm simply engaging with you because it's funny to watch you dance around giving a direct answer: because you can't.

If I'm wrong then you should be able to provide a direct answer to those questions above. ⏱️

nothing ambiguous about straight up saying i dont think nazis deserve speech, and they should not be in the open.

the misintepretation comes from your part

And yet you are unable to produce a single method to stop them from speaking.

... and despite your utter inadequacy - are absolutely certain that not only does free speech somehow enable them to exist... but that supporting free speech makes you one. Thank you for playing this out.

I'll still accept a response to the question, but we both know you neither have an answer nor the ability to provide one.
