    It can be a valid tactic in limited circumstances.

    Exhibit A: Germany and Defensive Democracy, banning nazi parties and the “communist” party (not very communist btw, just a USSR proxy), also criminalizing overt hate speech.

    But it can also be abused like some western democracies have started to ban anti-israel protests under the guise of “It’s ‘Antisemiticism’”.

    A double-edged sword.
