Obvious as it may sound, people with authoritarian beliefs hiding behind free speech actually consider it as a weakness akin empathy. It allows losers like them to amplify their reach despite not being in power. They abandon their “free speech absolutist” postures the moment they think they are in power.

    I disagree with the notion that moderation is done when the recipient doesnt want to see it. Moderation is the tools of censorship.
