    1. Slippery slope.
    2. Who is in charge of defining what is hate speech and extremist behaviour? What if it were the people who don’t agree with your definitions is in charge of setting the definitions?
    3. Everything is political. One does not simply say something isn’t political and it magically becomes so.
    4. Free speech is one of those things that is absolute. You are either for it or not, any encroachment is going to be the anti position. Obviously popular speech isn’t something that needs to be protected.
    5. The government asking/telling/coercing a private company to do something to circumvent restrictions against itself is one of the basest tenets of facism. We saw enough of that lately with government doing the same thing with social media. Twitter was going to shit before Elon* and I think a big part of that was exactly doing what Warner is asking wink wink here.
    • Elon put Twitter on the fast lane to shit, but he didn’t start it down that path. Fuck Jack, fuck Spez.
