My lastname is Persian so...airports are fun. My mother marched in the south in the 60s for civil rights.
It there is still a huge number of Neo-Nazi's in Germany so banning speech has worked?
Banning speech because you think the torches are coming for you is just a feel good measure. Only education and good people standing up to do the right thing can fix this. Let's get this right - I cannot stand these alt-right morons. They make my stomach turn. In reality however I just feel sorry for them and wish we as society could fix / education / heal whatever stupidity in their upbringing makes them act / think this way. No child is born racist. It is taught. A witch hunt to ban them just makes their persucution and anger complex worse.

Court orders are temporary based on a on going case, etc. NDAs are a voluntary contract. They also legally do not prevent you from speaking in the case of a legal violation.
I am an absolutist on this issue because it is the only safe way.

Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."
