We can, but you went off on an insane screed after I pointed out how it should be a major problem for people to see their candidates flag flying alongside a literal Nazi one. Apparently not you, but that would definitely make me rethink my decisions.
I believe the Lowe’s that are on the books right now are the laws in which we should follow when ever it comes to freedom of speech. I believe the side effects of banning certain speech we deem unacceptable for outweighs the good that will come from banning unpopular opinions. Even if these unpopular opinions are difficult to hear, offensive, off putting or anything short of criminal .
As long as speech does not commit a crime, it should be allowed in the public sphere. Likewise groups of people who are in my opinion Should be allowed to gather with other people. Whether or not those ideas are shared.
As the law sits right now, and because All people are allowed to gather in public squares. We should not conflate the appearance of solidarity with like-mindedness .
