Anti-semitism and racist speech is free speech. Hate speech is free speech.

If we are going to censor "hate speech", then we would have to ban atheist speech for being hateful to the religious or pro-gay speech for being hateful to traditionalists. Is that the kind of world you want to live in? Considering how much power social media organizations have, do you really want such companies to control speech?

Rather than shutdown free speech, I'd rather the NYTimes be shut down.

This is completely non sequitur, with a contradictory closing flourish to boot.
