>that people should be imprisoned for having disgusting and hateful ideas

So what about Charles Manson?

>Fortunately, you're wrong

Based on what? Have you counted the people who died or got hurt because someone took action because of those disgusting and hateful ideas?

Or is this the kind of reasoning where something must be wrong because you don't like it.

You already acknowledged there are limits in free speech so now we are just bargaining about the limits. There is no unlimited free speech.

Interestingly it seems like speech is rather limited if it's about copyright than human lives.
