Fascism is fascism. You always feel like you're on the side of the right when you shout down someone. Free speech isn't easy, but that's also why freedom isn't easy. There's a difference between someone saying something you don't like, and that same person bring harm to people or property. While I don't like bigotry, that person is a citizen just like you, and has the same rights.

Because they got called out, questioned about their reasoning, and had no good rebutle. Question everything, and show your sources.

My ex-wife was like this. Making snap decisions without planning 5 minutes ahead. She did this exact thing one time. Got a job at a gluten-free bakery. They told her she needs to wear a hat or hairnet, and would need to remove her long nails per local health code. She said no, and quit. Mind you, this was her first job in 6 months while I was supporting the household alone. She told me this was a boundary she had. Biggest. Bullshit. I've. Ever. Heard.
