I don’t, I just don’t think non-political speech is as important.

One of the big problems here is that once you start letting the government ban a class of speech, you’re also implicitly letting them classify speech.

Their definition of what is or isn’t protected political speech is going to be warped by their capability to ban non-political speech.

Do you trust the government to determine what is and isn't political speech?

The left has been talking for years about how what would we have classified 20 as political speech 20 years ago is not really political speech but hate speech, and inciting people to violence.
