Well written. I've seen a lot of stupid arguments defending Richard Spencer's assailant. They all boil down to either some sort of weird false equivalence, or two rights make a wrong. This needed to be said.
What if they start planning to use violence in response?
They already commit violence!
Nazism isn't a "politically unpopular opinion" - it is fundamentally incompatible with democracy, and it's disgusting to compare it to the fight for civil rights.
