What's The Favorite White Whine Of Secular Liberals?

WHEN I DEDICATED MY LIFE TO THOUGHT CRIME it was because I figured with all of the intelligent people looking for the answers in all of the acceptable places not finding them, maybe the answers lay outside of the allowed mode of expression.  

Considering what I wrote this morning about the ACLU, secular liberals agreeing with the Republican-fascists that white supremacy and Nazism lay within the POVs permitted not only a permission to be expressed by, also, the tender, caring regard of such pseudo-liberals as supported free speech absolutism, I'd try the idea that we should learn from the hardest lessons of history and admit there are a range of ideologies, of ideas that have proven themselves to be oppressive, deadly, genocidal and that those ideologies are not only not worthy of free expression but that they will, eventually, destroy egalitarian democracy and the free expression and freedom and lives of many innocent people.   Whose rights and lives are under the active non-protection of such groups as the ACLU whose potency to get them killed is far greater than to protect them from those the ACLU go to court on behalf of.  

If I say "never again" I mean it.  And part of that is to support the suppression of the lies and false witness that comprise the speech of the white supremacists, the neo-Nazis.    Their advocacy of destroying the real, life saving rights of those they target mark them as those who have forfeited their right to say it.

If it is perilous to suppress such speech the perils of allowing it, known through their not only past but current success are manifest in reality as known primarily to those they target, are even more fully known.   Though the white, affluent, comfortable and untargeted can pretend that shouldn't count.   If the largely white, affluent, untrageted lawyers and judges and "justices" cannot make the necessary distinctions between the truth and lies or, rather pretend not to be able to - they regularly discern the truth of far more ambiguous financial interests on a daily basis without feigning inability, even when they are totally ignorant of the mathematics or science necessary to do so - then we need lawyers and judges and "justices" who are both educated enough to make such distinctions and who are pledged to doing that honestly and to replace the current man-made structure of the legal establishment with another man-made one which is made for that task.  

There is that naughty enough to be as thrillingly transgressive as saying Nazis, America's indigenous fascists, the white supremacists, etc.  should get another chance ever again?
