>We take away your freedom and put you in jail. The ACLU has defended literal neo-Nazis and white supremacists right to rally and share their ideas on several occasions. Sounds like you would disagree with them, and that people should be imprisoned for having disgusting and hateful ideas. Fortunately, you're wrong. Don't conflate words with actions like hurting someone. There are very narrow restrictions on speech, mostly around calls or threats of imminent violence. But those are extremely rare cases, and they're not what you are broadly describing. |

So what about Charles Manson?
>Fortunately, you're wrong
Based on what? Have you counted the people who died or got hurt because someone took action because of those disgusting and hateful ideas?
Or is this the kind of reasoning where something must be wrong because you don't like it.
You already acknowledged there are limits in free speech so now we are just bargaining about the limits. There is no unlimited free speech.
Interestingly it seems like speech is rather limited if it's about copyright than human lives.
