re: german free speech. I agree that penalising certain speech cannot prevent right wing politics to gain ground but there is a secondary level that cannot be disregarded imo. Freedom of speech plays into defamation cases, so while the intention is also to keep a very public line of what is considered tolerable speech it allows individuals to sue others for defamation etc in cases of hate speech without free speech preventing that.

This is a really refreshing take! Also, I love the idea of challenging right wing guest speakers to debate instead of calling for disinvitation; I’ll try to encourage this at my university

A couple of things. It had been an article of faith on the left of the workers’ movement that it wanted the right out in the open so they could be seen and targeted. Now, the middle class “left” wants authority to step in to protect them. That is not the left. It is a type of pwogessive class politics; the other thing: When I was an undergrad, the CIA would come to recruit on campus. We thought, let's raise an issue to highlight its current role in Central America. We said, let's put it to the student body with a vote on whether, given their record, it should have the privilege to recruit. We sponsored a debate between a CIA rep and a civil liberation who believed it should be an open question determined by democracy—speech which we favoured but not necessarily recruitment. We lost the eventual vote, but the idea was not to cleanse ourselves by banning the CIA but to turn more people against US foreign policy.
