One wonders what he hopes to accomplish If you can't imagine what someone hopes to accomplish by doing that -- then after awhile you should try the hypothesis of that being the goal. (This is a Jordan B. Peterson-ism) by making himself a stench in the nostrils of civilization he only adds strength to the argument that the very concept of freedom of speech is one which has outlived its usefulness and merits deprecation in favor of a restricted realm If you go far enough to the right or the left politically, both extremes explicitly announce they want a complete overturn of the current social order. So if Mr. Anglin's actions are going to foster the creation of a free speech destroying banhammer, perhaps that's what he wants. If you study what happened in the rise of Fascism in the Weimar Republic, you'll find that it was the left leaning Weimar Republic that put into place the legal framework for Nazi totalitarianism. In almost every law that had to do with human rights, the Weimar Republic put in a "unless necessary for the public good" or "unless a law is passed to the contrary" clause. A system of Individual Human Rights is what separates any democracy from becoming the Weimar Republic -- which is to say, a mere incubator for authoritarianism. Lose the structural protection for Individual Human Rights, and the you've lost the safeguard against tyranny. That is precisely what those rights were designed to do! A good overview of the ideological underpinnings of the Weimar Republic can be found here: (Warning, the cover has a picture of the Hitler salute, but it's squarely anti-Fascist.) http://a.co/5yg6TEC http://a.co/5yg6TEC
