Sorry? What have I misunderstood about a mob outside a venue, there with the stated purpose of preventing someone from speaking?
I defend the right of any person, with the usual caveats, to state their view. They have the right to speak, I have the right not to listen. What no one has the right to do is turn up mob handed in an attempt to intimidate and silence.
This is of course Urban, which in many ways lost touch with reality long long ago.
Does everyone have a right to go on national TV and spout whatever lies and innuendo they like without consequence? You can't just say 'free speech' and then fold your arms as if the matter is closed forever. The question is not who gets to speak, it's who gets a platform, whose voice gets amplified and why, who has the right or the opportunity to challenge them.
TERFs don't want a free and fair debate. They know full well it would force them to show their true colours and they know they can't survive that. What they want is an exclusive, privileged platform and they'll happily shake the devil's hand to get it.
