What I am saying, however, is that it is dishonest and disingenuous to label me "just as divisive" when I call out bigotry and racism.

I wouldn't say that.

I think it's divisive to on the one hand claim the merits of diversity and free speech only to then shut down speech and just have the communication be all about shouting, swearing, calling people vermin and things like that.  

And I don't have any principles against people who stop talking to me because I voted for brexit I just find it funny like watching a kid who plays football until they lose then they run away crying with the ball.

there is a limit to diversity and calling bigots and vermin bigots and vermin is no more bigotry then calling a dog a dog and as I said I don't care what there reason is as I already explained above and no you analogy doesn't work

But now you mention it this can be a way of shutting out free speech.  Since people are afraid of being called racist it can be used as a way of intimidation if you want to talk about something race related but you're afraid of being called a racist.

In fact it doesn't even have to be race related in a sense, someone can shut down speech by calling someone a racist if they talk about immigration, president Obama, a non white celebrity.

It could be shutting down free speech about a non white person's opinions of a white person.

aww the bigots don't like being called bigots and wet themselves at the idea the society won't pander to there idiocy and people might  take a offence to it  would they like a violin quartet
