That's exactly the reason why it exists in the first place.

Racist viewpoints? COVERED

Misogynistic viewpoints? COVERED

Satanism, Cults and "questionable" religious groups? COVERED

Pedophiles and MBLA? COVERED

Websites that advocate illegal drug use? COVERED

Websites that advocate political assassination? COVERED

Websites that advocate killing law enforcement officers? COVERED

There are limitations to free speech, but the reason it EXISTS is not cover speech YOU approve it, it's for speech people you DO NOT agree with and viewpoints that aren't popular.

This is the problem I have with people who say they support freedom of speech, but when it comes to groups like ANTIFA, BLM and others on the left, it's ok to shut down white supremacist websites, but not others exposing the same thing, just on the other side of the aisle.

You can't have it both ways, that's why freedom of speech covers EVERYBODY equally.
