they are though, even if you don't like someone you shouldn't enjoy them getting censored

I don't think people should ever stub their toe. But, that doesn't mean I'm not going to laugh when it happens to my arch nemesis. It's entirely possible to be against something yet still laugh when it happens to an idiot.

if you started a political movement about protecting people from stubbed toes you should be against it regardless and take it as seriously as you want to be taken. Free speech is supposed to be the first principal of sargon's "liberalist" movement but his words and actions often show he doesn't care that much about it. He'll stand up for popular people like pewdiepie or jontron since it's a great chance to advertise himself but when tommy robinson got arrested for speaking in a public place sargon immediately threw him under the bus, and when people that said things he didn't like got censored he made fun of them and even jokingly advocated for more people to get censored. Sargon is a piece of shit that only believes in anything when it's convenient for him and he stands to gain from doing so, but in the moment he often shows his true colors.
