getting banned is silencing them, fool. it prevents them from recruiting more people. they can talk to themselves day in and day out but without fresh meat they can’t grow. the lesson of the last decade is that deplatforming 100% works. your free speech bullshit is exactly how nazis cover for themselves. liberals clutching pearls about muh freeze-peach just provides them a defense.

free speech for who, for what purpose, and at what cost? do you ever stop and think about the people harmed by the presence of the people you’re JAQing off for?

everyone has a line past which they won’t tolerate “free speech” – if they were advocating for the murder of the people you love 0% chance you’d be pulling this shit. the problem is you feel safe and comfortable in the knowledge that they don’t threaten you. you’re comfortable with the bigotry, shielded by the bottomless chasm of your ignorance. wake up call: if they seize power, they will hurt you and everyone you love, just as much as the rest of us. you’re not fucking safe.
