Neo-nazis should really start to concealed carry at these rallies.

They will be able to legally murder their enemies, at least with US self-defense laws.. A good bloodbath might give the left some pause in glorifying violence as you do. Consequences of your actions and all that.

The freedom to cancel is freedom speech.  Your argument isn't that freedom of speech can't survive while there are prohibitive consequences, your argument boils down to "freedom of speech is incoherent."
like planting a fire cross in front of your new neighbours to welcome them in town.  It's freedom of expression.

It is.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Yeah, that already happened.  Try again.

I think as usual the optimum is somewhere in the middle, but it might be interesting to note that "cancel culture" was how the communist regime maintained control of Hungary from roughly 1960 onwards.

For dissent they usually didn't imprison you, but rather made it impossible to work in your field or get anywhere in life. Worked great to keep educated people in line and to easily recruit people to be informants. But as long as you kept your mouth shut and your opinion to yourself, you were left largely alone.

The same system is being built in Hungary again and I would imagine is how Russia and similar regimes operate as well.

Look at you all cute, defending Nazis on the internet. Edgy, as garb said.

It is.

Also trespassing, destruction of private property, arguably arson.

If it's on their property.  If it's on your own property, and directed as a welcome to your neighbor, there is still reckless burning and disorderly conduct (and with perhaps the irony of actually being used appropriately instead of as a catch-all excuse to pick someone up).

So you want to protect terrorists and neo-nazi scums?  good.  You have a future waiting for you at the end of law school.


I'm not sure how you intended me to respond to this but being a lawyer working for the ACLU is not a terrible fate.

You're a special kind of person, aren't you?
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Yeah nobody else glorifies violence except people with very specific political opinions :hmm:

Anyway I think most left wing people are as against violence as anybody else. Get your head out of your propaganda for a second.
