Remember the other part of the no-free-speech side: "You do not have to provide a forum for those you disagree with. There is no principle that says everyone should have an opportunity to present their side. Censorship of opposing views is just what they deserve. If they weren't assholes, no one would criticize or censor them

Media consolidation and the Koch brothers suing critics is not the same as people saying a rich bigot shouldn't be given more money, or HR rules about workplace harassment

Your replies here are slightly more civil than your previous tone. But they are still full of ad hominem, and structured around ad hominem.
