When even RMS isn't progressive enough for you... crazy. Something that has stood out for me in the the modern political climate is that progressives tend to claim all of this is ultimately to protect us from fascists. And it tends to be what you are accused of being (or at least an enabler of) if you stand in the way of their policies. I've had long debates with radical leftist friends and we always somehow end up at fascism. I'm a useless center-left, fence sitting, Nazi enabler according to them. But many of the loudest public voices (from all sides of the political spectrum) advocating for free speech are Jewish or have Jewish heritage. Ben Shapiro, Dave Rubin, Sam Harris, Eric and Bret Weinstein, RMS and probably many more that I don't know of. Jews are the O.G. of oppressed minorities and are often the strongest advocates for free speech, science, democracy and so on. Maybe we should listen? Feel free to correct me. There may be some selection bias going on. Side note: I really like that Person/Pers/Perse idea. It sounds little odd at first, but it's the best gender-neutral pronoun I've heard so far and we really do need one.
