"Racism, bigotry, hatred and discrimination have existed for millenia and this will never, ever change. It is a cold, ugly fact of humanity."
Nobody is denying that.
You know, when I was four years old, a Nazi in full Nazi regalia, tried to check into my grandparents' motel. That was just 16 years after the end of WWII. Just 16 years since my grandpa had been shot at while riding tailgunner in a B-17.
And when this Nazi showed up, my grandpa didn't give him a room. He physically threw him out of the motel office when he refused to leave.
The guy whined, called the cops, and when they arrived, they told him to move his ass on down the road because if my grandpa didn't beat the crap out of him, the cops would.
That Nazi still had freedom of speech but the businesses there weren't going to tolerate it. My grandpa didn't want Nazis coming to his motel.
Chris Best is making a choice to give space to Nazis. This isn't censorship. It's a business making a decision about its customer base. Maybe Chris Best wants those Nazis but he should embrace it. Because those of us that don't want to do business with Nazis, that don't want to associate with them - we'll take our business elsewhere.
And here you are trying to conflate the actions of a private business with government censorship. You are either very confused or you're doing it intentionally, which is a very common Nazi tactic.
So congratulations, Adolfina. We know who and what you are.
