That's kinda irrelevant to my point. Not only can we do both at once but we should do both at once, once we set the standard that those whose views we think are despicable can't speak they can equally do the same to us.
False equivalency. Because incel is a very particular movement with misogyny and violent ideology at its very root, while video games do not showcase any particular ideology so cannot be seen to lead to the same conclusion.

The case can absolutely be made that games like GTA have misogny and violence at their root.

But you didn't say GTA. You said "video games". But as you're going with that argument, could you show me how the satirical universe of the GTA games is ideologically the same as the incel or white supremacists movement, with the same goals?

Basically incel and white supremacy involve the ultimate goal of eradicating something. So what are
@RockstarGames trying to eradicate? -
So trying to eradicate something is bad? Should we ban the freedom of speech of marxists who call for the eradication of the capitalist class? Feminists who call for eradication of toxic men? Atheists who call for eradication of religion?

Your argument is confused. Yes, calling for genocide is bad? The eradication of ideas and ideology is fine. You can be against the tenets of Islam without wanting the genocide of Muslims, for example.

I'm saying that the mistreatment of the capitalist class under marxism is as equally as inevitable as the subjugation of ethnic minorities will be in Richard Spencer's ethnostate.

But if class is removed, then there would be no class. That's the flaw in your argument. As improbable as it is, there could be a removal of class systems without violence. There's a difference between class, a societal construct, and skin colour.

If we admit that gender is a social construct (which I think it is) do we then find it acceptable to eradicate trans people for being a gender we don't like?

That's like saying the ideology behind The Witness has led to problematic locks on doorways all over the USA and UK where people can only progress their journey via logic puzzles.
