Those who are against gay marriage say that it does harm to families. Those who are against abortions say that they are against killing babies. They also argue that those things aren't political opinions. Currently I'm not afraid to say that gay marriage should be legalised, because the worst that could happen is that some homophobe could insult me with homophobic slurs. But if extra-judicial persecution of political opponents is normalised and encouraged then I sure as hell would keep my mouth shut, because I don't want to lose my job and my bank account. A business that deplatforms "bigots" today could easily start deplatforming "baby killers" and "family wreckers" tomorrow.
