What is your logic in arguing your point by the fact the Nazis used censorship? Sorry. That does not prove that absolute free speech is something to die for. Mein Kampf used free freedom. Don’t prove the sky is blue by stating that Washington DC is the IS capital. The Nazis also limited gun ownership. That does not mean the absolute right to gun ownership is good. And I’m deliberately provoking second amendment gun nuts here.

But seriously how does the Nazis using total censorship prove that absolute free speech is an absolute good? They used free speech to get to the point they could ban other ideas. But those other ideas failed in the 20s to stop the rise of Nazism.

This thread is full of persons telling me about Nazi censorship. Thank you, I dont need wiki on that subject and again it does not address the point that Mein Kampf led to the Holocaust, Mein Kampf used free speech. Give me an update example of a genocide that occurred BECAUSE of the banning of hate speech of the Mein Kampf kind. That would be proof. Not your reciting Cory Doctorow level pseudo-intellectual libertarian bro nonsense.

The Genocide convention bans genocide incitement. That includes in writing. Are you going to argue that this is an abuse of free speech?

Raphael Lemkin in 1944 literally defined genocide in his book Axis Rule in Occupied Europe. He describes Nazi censorship laws. Then he wrote this.
