there's nothing wrong with being on the extreme end of the spectrum when it comes to freedom of speech, imo. like chomsky says: either you support free speech or you don't. even stalin believed in speech he agreed with being free. it's the controversial speech that actually needs protecting.
i mean on the one hand we have people who are willing to kill for their religion. they at least have principles. they know where they stand. we should be just as firm with our values imo.
