    I still wouldn’t make the comparison to slavery myself

    You’re the one who made the comparison to it being slavery? There are plenty of things you’re not allowed to say, why are you fighting against this instead of the right to make bomb threats?

      No I’m not, @quindraco@lemm.ee is. As for bomb threats, the violate the non-aggression principle in a way that simply choosing to peacefully opt out of interacting with a person or group of people does not.

      (And, for the record, I think that the Civil Rights Act in the USA is, on the whole, a good thing. I just don’t think it’s costless.)

        I replied to you because you defended their position. So yes you are.

        Who do you propose should enforce this non-aggression principle? And why do you think it’s okay to tell someone what to say just because you find it aggressive? Just admit you’re fine with limiting my freedom of speech you just think racists should be allowed to say what they wish as long as it isn’t your definition of aggressive and move on.
