   @augustus I suspect that their concern is that bad speech will spread bad thoughts, and that ... their counterarguments aren't strong enough?

   I dunno. It's like they simultaneously believe and disbelieve their own line.

      @augustus As I observed elsewhere: the difference between the hard left and hard right in terms of information, historically, has mostly been their choice of books to burn.

      It's been the classical liberals and their followers that said that book burning was stupid.
