I mean that's vague enough that it can mean anything from Nazis to a religious person objecting to gay marriage.

The fact that some ideas can lead to harmful ideologies is obviously true, and that goes beyond even bigotry into the realm of conspiracy theories, pseudo science, defunct political ideologies, etc. It's not at all clear where to draw a line and in fact it's rather subjective in the first place.

you have to ask whether ISIS recruitment videos ought to be allowed in the name of "free speech"
I'm inclined to say yes if there's nothing illegal in the video.

Because the optics are amusing and funnier than anything those accounts have ever actually tweeted.

Constitutional Amendment Proposal: Black votes should count double and only black people should be allowed to hold any elected position... but only for the next 200 years.
