Here’s a thing some people who think they’re Very Fucking Smart seem to have forgotten:
We didn’t used to platform Nazis.
This whole idea that it’s Very Important to Free Speech to give Nazis a platform? That’s new. You know what else is new? The rise of open, aggressive, unapologetic fascism. This isn’t a coincidence.
We didn’t used to platform Nazis. AND THERE WERE A LOT FEWER NAZIS BACK THEN. I was fucking there, I fucking remember it.
