Thank you for your question. It is another nice illustration of my main point.
I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it. That was said in 1750s. My “living experience” of growing up in a totalitarian society tells me that it is not only true, but vital - vital for having a free and prosperous society.
American Fathers agreed with Voltaire. But my feeling (which I do not like) is that an easily observable slice of native Americans have forgotten what exactly makes their country so nice to live in. “The lubricant oil is stinky and greasy - let’s get rid of it, car rides will be much more pleasant”.
Let me ask you a question in my turn. Why presence of racists on Gab bothers you so? No one forces you to read them or talk with them.
But Gab's purpose is racist speech so why go there? They don't allow free speech because if you go there to argue with the racists they ban you. In fact, Gab has even more censorship than Twitter.
Unfortunately your "main point" misses the reality of the world.

Glad you asked. The presence of racists on Gab makes me unwilling to be "guilty by association" (in the eyes of others) for being on the same site as them. Simple as that. This is a reality in the world, and until you find a way to stop people from instinctively applying the "guilty by association" principle, I'm unwilling to be on the same site as Nazis. Sorry.
