I’m looking forward to whenever someone decides that your beliefs are “hate speech” and suddenly you’ll be the one supporting free speech.
"Free speech" is a morally neutral thing. Most leftists don't go on about "free speech" because it's not a value we hold. We value tolerance of people of different races, genders, sexualities, and so on. The issue is not speech in general -- it's the content of speech that matters. "Free speech" sidesteps the issue of what is actually being said.
Well, at least you’re honest about being against free speech.
