And now there are people on here saying disinformation should be banned and that absolute free speech is “naive”. That’s smells like Tankie…
I think that there are a lot of celebrity fools - Carlin was just one of them. And just because someone isn’t hired by Russia or China on a pay-per-post basis doesn’t mean they can’t be a fellow traveller or useful idiot.

Yes - so does Putin’s Russian Nationalism and Xi’s Chinese Communism, incidentally. The global nationalist movement is quite amusingly similar whenever it raises uts ugly head.

So you support people spreading hate and violence?

I support people’s right to be wrong - and I know that banning their hatefulness would just push it underground. It would give it a veneer of mysticism and special secrecy which it lacks. I’d rather people be able to see Nazis and avoid them than be tricked by their lying wiles.
