Progressives say that we should all be capitulators to leftist Marxist ideology and Leninist indoctrination, worshippers of global warming, and appeasers to radical Islam.
We cannot expect the Americans to jump from capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans small doses of socialism until they suddenly awake to find they have Communism. - Soviet Leader Nikita Khrushchev, 1959
Having made tremendous progress throughout history, advancing, protecting, and promoting freedom of speech, we find ourselves at a threshold when book burnings, forbidden free expression of ideas, and printing for the elite consumption, not the masses, do not seem like such a thing of the past, even though we have the Internet for now.

Honestly, how hard is it to give freedom of thought/speech to only those that agree with you? that’s nothing. Absolutely nothing noble or honorable or virtuous about that.

It takes nothing. And it’s worht nothing because it IS NOT REAL FREEDOM OF SPEECH. Not when they are waiting to physically attack you, destroy your stuff, or attempt to sic the government on you to try to get you to voluntarily censor your own freedom of speech.
Freedom of speech means the freedom to offend anyone regardless of their ethnic background, race, politics, religion or beliefs. Freedom of speech should never be interpreted as the actions that can result in physical, financial or economic harm to others.
However it should never be made illegal because it might be politically incorrect. The world is being led and following a dangerous precedent on this. That’s my belief, maybe some would say I’m wrong.
Just like Husseincare. Oh, yeah.
