Those aren't just ideas- those are vicious actions. I don't think giving access to those we are actively at physical odds with is within bounds of debating ideas.

I doubt the founding fathers were inviting Quislings to their debating societies during the revolutionary war.

Well, if you don't have a problem with ostracizing groups like ISIS or white supremacists, then maybe we don't disagree that much.
Are we at war with white supremacists? ANTFIA? Venezuela?

Equating ISIS with supremacists is equating a nuclear bomb with an M80 firecracker.

Well that brings up an interesting question: is the US at war with ISIS? I know Congress authorized action against the Taliban and Al Qaeda and maybe that's all that's needed to go after other groups.
