the only time I’m willing to accept it is if it’s somehow actively harmful

Oh, like the dissemination of propaganda originating from the troll farms of hostile powers? Good idea.

Harmful meaning things like harassment (defined as continued and targeted use of speech intended to harass an individual) or credible threats of violence (i.e. a threat to kill a specific individual, attack an area, etc).

Harmful doesn't mean "ideas I don't like."
