Fascist “freedom” of speech is “freedom” to advocate the abolition of freedom of speech. Abolition of freedom of speech is inherent to any fascist state, by definition of fascist state. It is absurd to argue for the “freedom” to advocate the end of freedom of speech.

Why?

Funny how this argument repeats the argument of rabid anticommunists, who want to censor and/or jail reds like Charles for similar reasons.
