We agree that extreme demands attention. We probably disagree on what to do about it.

I grew up believing silence is death. The distinction, lost on all the defenders of hate speech, is punching up vs punching down.

No, not all. I would never trash an under privileged group of people but I do recognize the reason that hate speech is protected constitutionally and why it has been upheld in the Supreme Court. Fuck censorship.

See? We don't even share the same definition for hate speech.

What do you mean? I'm just saying that I wouldn't use hate speech but I defend the right of others to do so. You said "lost on all the defenders of hate speech". I am a defender, but not user, of hate speech.
