    But they are primarily leninists, dedicated ideologically to authoritarians and strongmen above all reality.

    Why does that mean they should be banned? Is speech that we agree with the only permitted speech?

    Just because you think they’re wrong doesn’t mean they should be banned. Banning them makes it look like we’re afraid of people reading their points, which gives them power and credibility

      People should have free speech, governments shouldn’t have the ability to degrade our platform with shills and LLMs, especially if they’re spreading propaganda for dictatorships.
