It's been in the news, and subject to much HN commentary:

Oh, I see... Well, there is a sort of alarmingly high number of people defending what appears be a cesspool of hate and bigotry.

Not exactly (at least I hope not). I think they're defending the rights of cesspools to still have freedom of speech.

(Except it's not government restrictions, so it's not exactly First-Amendment-style free speech.)

(And, in defending KF's right to be on the internet, they're defending other businesses being required to carry them, which is... free speech for KF but not for people like Cloudflare.)
