A white racist town where I was hated and unwanted for being Black. Because that's what you're defending when you cry about free speech. That's what they believe free speech and other human rights like freedom of association means: that they can have their white-only enclaves and chase out anyone who isn't like them. They couldn't kick me out because I was a kid, but they broke me in other, far more insidious ways. And they were able to do it because it's not a free speech issue, it's a racism issue.

Also, you don’t have a right to have people around you like you.

You tell that to your compatriots whose bigotry you are defending.
