Free speech should not include the ridicule of minorities or the support of fascism

Alright. We’re back to normal. Unmitigated free speech is a bad idea. Social democracy is the moderate wing of fascism. Capitalism is killing the earth. liberal democratic systems are prone to capture by the rich. And I haven’t eaten Pizza Hut in ages.

Free speech was put into the constitution to provide the freedom to criticize your government without fear of consequences. Free speech also allows you to vocalize your beliefs no matter how stupid. That does include racism and facism, do I agree with it? No, but it's their right to outst themselves.

Unfortunately our laws are not applied equally(they should be). I’m more speaking from principle than reality.
