A U.S. senator is coming to the defense of someone who spent two years calling me a “lispy queer.”

Even aside from that, a lot of people arguing against Maza trying to deplatform Crowder (myself included) are doing so b/c we believe in fostering a culture of ‘free speech.’ While it’s not legally applicable here, it’s a concept that should be societally enforced.

I see absolutely zero downsides from censoring the subset of "Free Speech" that is literally just personal, demeaning, toxic slurs, it accomplishes nothing at best, and at worst just pisses everyone off. He's still welcome to argue central core ideas without all the ad homs.
