    But isn't that exactly the discussion?

    No I think not, you are more talking about majority rule. Turkey can not be used an example anyway Erdogan is just a madman who makes a coup after an attempted coup

    So the question whether there should be thought-policing to prevent a majority rule that wants to treat minorities badly has nothing to do with a discussion about majority rule? Okay...

    And Erdogan being apparently supported in everything he does by a majority of the Turkish electorate has nothing to do with majority rule and the validity of it in all cases either...hmm, how philosophical of you.

    Where you want a bigger picture I want to narrow it down, we aproach it differently. I don't care about dangerous views some may or may not have. All I can say for myself is that I don't really know how far that can be stretched but the opposite of taking it too far is also bad. A home searh because someone has ideas I don't find very nice, well...
