I'm saying that freedom of speech allows us to understand the mind of extremists. We get to know the true feelings and intentions of misogynysts, racists, homophobes or misandarists, every time they practice thier freedom of speech. This is a good thing. One of the reasons I am an ardent supporter of the freedom of speech. Hate-filled people are sometimes dumb enough to vocalize thier hate, sort of a warning to reasonable people around them.

What word should I use? Isn't hatred of the male gender one of the components of this type of extremism? Teabaggers don't like being called Teabaggers, either.
