Alright, but the the fact that speech is promoting prejudice is not sufficient reason to suppress it. Patently offensive speech is self-correcting anyway, as Milo’s latest woes so eloquently demonstrate.

Much of the racism and intolerance described here is practiced, not by Milo himself, but by his alt-right followers, who don’t get what Milo is really about. You can’t fix stupid.

The fundamental error in this particular debate is that you and your speech is routinely called racist, sexist, misogynist and fascist by the radical left when it merely disagrees with their world view. That’s not only offensive, it is intellectually dishonest.
