I still don't have to like a trend of people loosing their jobs over political views.
Employees can be and are held to behavior clauses. You violate the clause? You're fired.

I've already told you why I feel the way I do. Racists are a waste of oxygen.

Not at all. They are part of the public domain when they protest, and employers are eager for information on any employees who might hurt their companies.

I would argue a simple white supremacist doesn't reach that level. My beef is that plenty of black people are given a free pass for being racist by the "establishment" while whites in the same position get castrated. The standards should be equal for everyone.
Tell that to the Nazis in Charlottesville and their president.

Internet warriors make mistakes. So many people look very much alike. Identifying them wrongly, or rightly could put not only their livelihoods but, also their lives and that of their families lives in jeopardy.

Vigilantly justice and lynching is not recommended.

People are becoming what they profess to hate.
My Father spent nearly four years in Europe killing Nazis, and he didn't do it to see them flourish on American soil. If they had tried that rally in Dresden they would all be in the docket right now and draw sentences from two years up.

Germany learned something from their mistakes. It is up to us to learn not to repeat them.

We learned Trumpspeak pretty well. It was easy after reading "1984" and knowing what was going on.

No, but face recognition software is getting to be incredibly reliable. Ask facebook about it. All you need is a picture.

Freedom Of Speech in 1A is about the government not being able to retaliate for someone speaking his mind. It does not apply to his peer group, who are under no constraints to tolerate hate speech.
