I feel that, looking at history, this is strictly untrue. Minor infringment on freedom of speech doesn't precede, or indicate a slippery slope into totalitarianism. Pre-Nazi Germany had free speech, almost all of the rights to censor were applied in a single day.

You require a sound justification, explanation for any infringment on freedom of speech - and it seems to me that it wouldn't create much more of a slippery slope than anything else. It's, to me, just as bad of an argument as saying that banning hard opioids will lead to the ban of alcohol, saying that allowing 18 year olds to vote will lead to toddlers making decisions in the country. 

You don't let 18 year olds vote already? :O

Hard opioids are also banned. I was talking about historical legislation.



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.
