So while arguing with fascists is 100% a waste of time and nobody should do it, from what I've seen many of the libertarian :freeze-peach: types actually huff their own farts enough to believe what they say, and saying something along the lines of "Do you think ISIS should have a platform on twitter?" Is a good way to make them reconsider the "free speech absolutist" bs.

I mean, my attitude has always been to ask why we draw the line at ISIS when so many worse people remain functionally untouchable?
