I'm against what these people stand for - I think it's disgusting - but I'm very uneasy with seeing the bigger mob effectively repress their right to protest and freely assemble and express themselves (that doesn't extend to harm or physical damage). Repressing the open speech of people like this just drives them underground, where they can easily find each other and keep the echo chamber going. Or numerous sideways remarks misrepresenting a certain Google memo (yeah, the guy should have been fired, but his observations were not bigoted or inconsistent with current sociological research). Maybe it's the constant Facebook feed insanity of people who want Trump removed from office because he is "mentally handicapped" based on the opinions of psychologists listening to his public rhetoric (remove him because he is a criminal all you want). Let people be wrong in public, it's better if we know who to avoid. Ok, maybe it's just me, but the mainstream media hopes and expectations for private / corporate censorship are starting to feel a little overboard. "We are everything they claim to despise," but Tor won't prevent vile usage of its tools.
