Straight up Marcuse, thought the author seems to have gotten it 2nd/3rd hand.

"The idea of freedom of speech does not mean a blanket permission to say anything anybody thinks. It means balancing the inherent value of a given view with the obligation to ensure that other members of a given community can participate in discourse as fully recognized members of that community."
I wonder what that means?

participate in discourse as fully recognized members of that community
Illegal aliens are not Americans. By definition.
I wonder what that means?
They mean you are being forced to accept illegal aliens as Americans.

Again, Marcuse. We have to favor revolutionary dialogue and repress conservative thought, because mere tolerance will favor the capitalist running dog oppressors.
