You can't be free without limits either. Unless you're the only free man in your society.

In the real world there are always limits.

Absolute free speech, like the free market, has only ever existed in theory. In practice even most free speech absolutists are just quibbling over where to draw the lines of censorship and tolerance.

Am I allowed to come into your house and scream into your ear without limit? Can you expect to go into a synagogue and hang a nazi flag from the rafters without them being able to ban you from the premise?

I think that much of this kind of stupid discourse on HN is driven by thiel-worshipping reactionaries who believe weird theories about why their genes make them better than black people, but another huge part of it seems to be literally fourteen year old libertarians. Which are you?
