You are not wrong either. But 2 wrongs do not make a right. Some liberals today are not much unlike the "family-values" conservatives of the past. Those people fought to censor/ban/boycott and otherwise deplatform material they found objectionable. Many people today who despised them are unfortunately becoming a lot like them. Open discourse is very important for a free society and especially research. Banning "hate-speech" and "false information" is a very noble goal, but who is the arbiter of what is false or hate? It is not a binary decision and generally just like the justice system is designed to let some guilty people go to protect the innocent, free speech restrictions have always had the high burden of that the speech must cause immediate harm.
