intolerantly tolerant

That's because it's required to not tolerate intolerance in order to be tolerant.

Free speech is a right wing dog whistle at this point as it's used to justify being able to say whatever people want to say no matter the impact on others. What people who invoke free speech need to realose is that it's protected in public spaces, not in private spaces and it's a purely American thing, even in Canada the freedom of expression doesn't allow people to propagate hate. I don't know where Beehaw is hosted but if it's not in the USA it's even more ridiculous to talk about free speech on it.
