I know I'm not who you were replying to but I agree with the sentiment against freedom of speech. I honestly really value freedom of speech but it hasn't actually been doing people any good for a while. And it's not just about all the shitskins amongst us. It allowed for consistent propaganda to demoralize everyone, including white people, for decades. I value truth and freedom of speech shows for the truth to be spoken but it also allows for it to be drowned in a sea of bullshit. When it comes down to it I think the real problem is that the freedoms granted to people by the constitution were underpinned by the assumption that the people being granted those freedoms would be of a decent enough character that they would feel a duty to use those freedoms for good. The framers also probably couldn't have conceived of something like the internet where every retard has the potential to reach out to the whole world with lies. Freedom of speech is a lot less dangerous when only people within earshot can hear you and at least the cost of printing would naturally curtail someone's ability to have people reading their ideas. The same thing applies to voting. It was white , male land owners only for a long time. That ensured that people making decisions about who was capable of good governance were qualified because they themselves were capable of governing their own businesses and families well enough to keep them. Freedom is just anarchy unless those given it are capable of imposing order on themselves to some degree.
