I know it already is but should it be?

    Or choose not to do business with them, or choose not to help them on the side of the road, or choose not to invite them to your parties, or choose not to let them on your property, or choose to sign them up for all the useless email and mail spam you can find…

    Don’t tunnel on one thing. A freedom for everyone means a freedom for the capitalists, and the communists too.

      I generally agree it’s fine where there’s an “equality of arms”.

      A freedom for everyone means a freedom for the capitalists, and the communists too.

      By capitalists I mean business owners and/or bosses. Your boss shouldn’t be able to dictate what you can say outside your job. That just lets the owners of corporations control speech.

        That’s… One way to look at it. On the other hand, if I were an employer, should I be required to keep people on payroll if they were going around saying “I work for Bytemeister, and I think Hitler was right and we should have exterminated the Jews”? That’s going to affect my business badly, it’s going to cost me my quality of life, if not my entire business.
