  7. ​ @nathanjora7627  I am not sure I get your analogy, but I have to say, the way you phrase your comment was beautiful. Very civil. On YouTube here I don't see nearly enough comments expressed like that - like really trying to get at and define and perhaps solve a problem. My point is that the Constitution and Free Speech have a purpose, a context. ( This is purely my own idea/feeling ) That is, the purpose of speech should be about communicating political and ideological concepts and ideas to sustain and better the society and the country. Speech should not be a weapon to intimidate people, or make them feel bad, unwelcome, inferior, or like they are not full citizens in an egalitarian society. So, in terms of getting ideas across in the "marketplace of ideas" for the purpose of perfecting our union, what is important is not someone's right to transmit hate, but the right of a person with ideas to both express those ideas in a forum, and have those ideas heard and processed by other citizens. Anything that degrades or precludes that right is against society, and ultimately against the individual as well - and that is what needs to be protected and perfected - not someone's right to project hate onto others either individually or collectively. I am not suggesting laws and penaltiies for minor speech infractions, but when it comes to things like using LOUD speech, or flooding a forum with noise or lies, or insults or bad feelings - that we should take that very seriously. I feel like it is OK to censor those on social media who are anti-social. The argument by the Right that there should be no censorship or that they are preferentially picked out for censorship or cancellation is only because the so-called Right cannot exist without this factor of hate and intimidation, and they use that more than the so-called Left. So when you compare the two on a superficial level, the Right has more strikes against them in forums not because of bias, but because of their dependence on intimidation and negative reinforcement. Does that clarify what I said or meant, and does it make any sense?
