    Every single person who claims to be a “free speech absolutist” is just telling you they’re an asshole.

      Sure you don’t. That’s why you let every intrusive thought win and live a life of radical honesty.

        Yeah but I’m edgy and need others to know I’m edgy so I say things like “I don’t believe e in censorship” and "I’m a free speech absolutist "
