So Zig Forums, how does a board built on free speech feel about this?
Free Speech is bad though, Fascists can use it.(USER WAS SILENCED FOR THIS POST)

Good the EU will be gone in a few years at this rate
Thomas Jackson
The sucdems and socialists voted against these measures, the far right, conservatives, and liberals supported it. It should be abundantly clear where everyone stands.
Communism is known for sending people to gulags for utilizing free speech, and I have dealt with leftypol users directly genuinely arguing in favor of this practice before. While you are ethical in what you have stated, this board clads itself in Communist values, meaning if anything Reddit would support free speech more than Zig Forums would.
You're right, they're not. that's why crypto- and implicit fascist views are tolerated. The only time when fascists are cracked down upon is when their populism veers a little too close to exposing the class conflict. That's when they get shut down. (See the SA, Romania's Iron Guard, Brazil's Integralists, the original Falangists, etc.)

So why crypto- and implicit socialist views are tolerated too?
Thomas Stewart
Repressive tolerance is a thing. It legitimizes liberal democracy better than repressing shit.
Jayden Morris
more communist parties are/were banned in the history of Europe than fascist ones.
Angel Sanders
lot's of EU countries (if not most or all of them) have "anti-totalitarian" speech laws which says something like "socialist states were literally nazi germany" and speaking favourably or presenting state symbols in public is prohibited. You can get same troubles for having swastika on shirt as hammer and sickle.
Constitutional free speech protection of my country literally says only that "no book can be ever banned, lel"
Gabriel Wright
Accelerationism at work but why does it have to hurt so much
I see what you mean but some countries are more tolerant than others, I know for example in France you can wear hammer and sickle without legal problem, same for political parties like Lutte Ouvrière for example who wears it as logo, even the PCF was legal when it was still ML during Cold War. I know it's not a real tolerance but it's not a zero tolerance at least.
Also with internet free speech we can at least use cyber places like Zig Forums, we don't have to hide on an illegal obscure chan in the darknet.
Samuel Young
They should be allowed to voice their opinion/be retarded.
Wyatt Harris
I only support nazifags being allowed to speak because it lets me know who needs to be targeted. Nazifags aren't exactly subtle, and are always willing to broadcast their faggotry.
Question: How do you know if someone is a nazifag? The answer? You don't, they'll let you know.
different stache here stating indifference towards some fucking fetish while insisting on opposition to political opponents doesn't express ones own affinity so here's a question rising out of your response: are you actually retarded? btw. there's no difference in obnoxiousness between weebs and furfags drink bleach
Tbh i have a pretty weird stance on Japan I like (the japanese)Dangaropa and 1 anime named Log Horizon, but i dislike most of popular weeb shit(sao,dot etc) i find them weird and tasteless so…. Nope
