So basically what you're saying is that only progressive views are valid.

  That isn't what elil17 said. I happen to agree with both sentences in elil17's comment and I'm fairly conservative. I'm pretty sure elil17's idea of which views are "antithetical to a free and equal society" doesn't match my own, though.

    I think what constitutes "antithetical to a free and equal society" varies dramatically. I believe that no speech is "antithetical to a free and equal society" because to do so is to assume one speech is greater than another. I think that’s how we got to this point. So long as the speech does not infringe on the rights of someone else, it should be absolutely allowed. A public discussion on overthrowing the government, yes. A public discussion on school segregation and how to achieve it, yes. But a discussion about how to violate someone’s rights, fire someone because of their race, gender, sexuality, any of that, or in anyway trying to Directly harm another person, that’s where it becomes bad speech.
