Absolute free speech is for absolute cavemen. It's 2024
I'm not accusing the Swiss of having done this, but banning speech because the government has declared the content illegal is about as quintessentially fascist as possible. I'm sure you have at least one unpopular opinion you would be unhappy about going to prison for having.

Fascism isn't a tolerable "opinion".
Says the fascist who wants to incarcerate all holders of opinions you disagree with.
So France is fascist? Germany is fascist? The UK is fascist?
Or did yous just learn a new word and now you just call everyone who disagrees with you a fascist?
This racist cunt says that non-native Europeans should be forcibly removed back to their country of origin. I don't want him spouting hate against my fellow humans, the government doesn't want him spouting hate against my fellow humans
If you agree he should be allowed to spew bile like the cunt he is, you can fuck off too
The issue is the precedent. You agree with the government on this, but will you agree with how they use this power in future?
Or did yous just learn a new word and now you just call everyone who disagrees with you a fascist?
Calling me stupid because you disagree with me while criticizing me for criticizing people I disagree with isn't the flex you think it is. And yes, you are a fascist, tyrannical fuck who shouldn't be allowed to make important decisions about governance.
Dangerous as this is, at least someone’s doing something about the swell of idiocy. I only had to read as far as the definition of “remigration” to know this guy needs to be denied any and every platform.
