You think it is good that people have a platform where they can spread racism?

I am German, I have visited the concentration camps. You can not tolerate people like this. They can not have any right to speak. After all they are not going to tolerate mine once they gain power. People wanting to murder me is not a matter of opinion.

You might think I am dramatic but that is because you might be (for now) sheltered from the consequences, asylum seekers having their accommodations burned down, trans people being murdered, black people being shot by the police, women dying because doctors are too scared of anti-abortion laws are not so lucky.



I'm American. I prefer to err on the side of free speech, versus over-aggressive censoring of what can be written/thought/etc.

Quite honestly, I've never seen anything "racist" on Quillette, and I've read them for some while in the past. There are certainly a wide range of positions held by the assorted authors, and it's one of few sites that hadn't (at least a few years ago when I was reading it more regularly) fallen to "We cannot so much as think anything that does not align to our political orthodoxy."

"A Wikipedia article stating that a site at some point had some articles on an topic many find offensive" is not enough for me to classify a platform as a racist platform.
