Hate speech is literally speech.

You're welcome to argue that not all speech is good and some deserved to be banned by censoring it. But please at least be honest about what you're trying to do.




Do you think that incitement to violence should be protected speech? If not, you agree that some speech deserves to be banned; you're just drawing the line at a slightly different place than GP.


Sure, I think that "imminent lawless action" is a fairly reasonable standard.

But when I call for censorship, I don't pretend that it's something else.
