It absolutely has not been proven, I just gave you proof that it does not work. They are literally supporting fascists pursuing a final solution against their others as we speak and have been that entire 70 years. They also are on the cusp of losing the country to their far right back by Russia and now the US that will try to fix elections so they never leave power. That is not working, that is failing. On both counts.
Not really. Maybe a marginal amount of them hiding in the shadows, but they've only become emboldened recently. Germany thrived for decades while having laws against flying flags with swastikas on them.
And I never said it was a perfect solution, just that it's better than the alternative. Which is to do nothing and allow the fascists to infect the politics of your nation.
You seriously think allowing the American politicians, our current Administration at that, decree what is hate speech and disallowed? You can't be serious. You think it would lead to better outcomes allowing the US president and his appointees to dishonor the First Amendment and decree what is hate speech?
No, not them, us. We decide. The ones who aren't nazis.
Obviously, Trump would outlaw anything left of right-of-center. That's why we punish him first.
We do not have the power to Outlaw speech which is the only part I was taking issue with.
