People love to criticize the marketplace of ideas and sure it’s imperfect… but what’s he alternative?
Ban Zionists and Nazis and Fascist from all aspects of the public sphere.

Sure, if you have total power over the media ecosystem. But we don’t.
So the question has to be asked–are you banning Zionism from the public square or simply exiling anti Zionism into a small echo-chamber where no one will hear it anymore and Zionism will go unchallenged? This is my problem with this approach.

“I want to kill the president of the United States of America?”

Well I don’t think that’s very effective either but if we can’t have a discussion then we’ll just have to disagree.

It’s worked before. If only we’d had more premature antifascists, we might have nipped it in the bud before it enveloped most of Europe and China.

What worked was the might of an entire empire waging total war against another. I don’t think any Lemmings have that power at their disposal.
