One cannot found a civic religion and allow blasphemy against it.
Once you look at hate speech as Maoist prosecution of Heresy against Wokism, you'll understand why the libertarian sentiment you expressed isn't being applied.
look, Nazi Truckers, January 6th, Orange Man Bad, Black Lives Matter, Why do you want to kill grandma, ORANGE MAN BAD, WHY DID YOU MOVE MY STAIR MUFFIN YOU BIGOT?
Never existed. It was the attitude of one man. It was never reflected in government policy.
Voltaire never even said it. It's the conclusion of a biographer based on his actions. He was once asked what he would do if Rosseau, his arch-enemy, showed up at his home fleeing repression. He would say: "I WOULD BEAT HIM TO DEATH!" Then asked what he would really do, he said: "I'd show him the best room that I have and tell him that he can stay there for for as long as he can." (It's quite a while that I read this, so take this with a grain of salt.)
I may hate what you say but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it.
Whatever happened to that sentiment?

I'd love if everyone did-- world would be a better place for it.

Truckers were Nazis, but then Bad Russian Man happened and we all had to send weapons to Nazis in Ukraine.

It’s definitely unrealistic but I try to stick to that. Although the other side has no problem shutting you down
