Quote to ponder

[Therese Fitzpatrick]

I do believe in free expression, which is why I express my opprobrium
when I read bigoted posts that denigrate a category of people.  If
denigrating speech is welcome under the guise of free expression, an
objection to the denigration of women is also welcome, yes?  If
misogynistic speech is welcome, anti-misogynistic speech is also
welcome.
