It is unclear how making it illegal to profit off of domestic or international terror is a danger to free speech. As I mentioned before, it's pointless to argue rights abrogation in this, because there is no rights abrogation here.
Your position on free speech can be whatever you want it to be, but terrorism isn't speech, free or otherwise. This has been a common misperception of right wing extremists around the globe. They believe that, somehow, they possess rights they do not possess, rights which inherently harm others, rights which must be granted as the compelling interest regardless of that harm or of others rights....and they possess them through means and arguments which never address or approach them. A fantasy of rights, supplied to a fantasy of whiteness, supporting a fantasy of rights abrogation by genocide, a position which you have abandoned. Rights abrogation by free speech, as is explicitly the case in your current comments. Or by unequal representation under law, which is implicit to your constant complaints about blacks, antifa, the boogeyman, and whoever else.
None of this is happening. Absolutely none of it. To your credit, you feel that it would be concerning if it were. That leaves you between a rock and a hard place. You are either well intentioned but profoundly wrong due to the consumption of propaganda, or you are not genuinely committed to the facts of any position you hold on any matter you've raised. States are, themselves, between exactly that rock and hard place when it comes to enforcement. Thankfully, despite your wild suggestions to the contrary, there is not only guidance on this subject - but a process of appeals available to you and to them.
