    Thinking everyone you disagree with should be silenced and not allowed in is literally what fascists do. It's what the nazis did. How very "progressive" of you.

    Everyone should be allowed to express their opinions and beliefs. Everyone, no matter how much you disagree with them. The onus should be on you to simply not engage with any that you don't want to, be that by simply ignoring them or by using the built in tools of the platform like blocking/ignoring. You're literally asking for censorship of speech.

    This is a private site not the government. Private entries get to decide what goes as long as they aren't harming a protected class. Macy's e aren't a protected class.

    You gave carpet bombed this thread with your fascist and bigoted posts. Absolutely pathetic. You're what these sites don't need. Go back to truth social.

    Is the person you're responding to not also using their free speech?

    It's ironic, because you're implying that they shouldn't make comments on their thoughts about this, because the thought of censorship upsets you.

    Don't forget that complaining and critiquing are also under the idea of free speech, even if you disagree with the other person.
