Respectfully, as a believer in the critical importance of free speech, letting the state censure speech based on its content makes me uneasy. The ACLU protects the free speech rights of scum like the Klan and the Nazis to ensure the free speech rights of the rest of us.

I didn’t say I want the state to censor speech - I said I don’t know what the solution is. And I don’t. But I do know that it’s become increasingly dangerous to allow hate groups free reign - and I think one reason is the media’s “view from nowhere” in which they present all opinions and views as morally equivalent and never express any judgment.
