Free speech absolutism absolutely is one. It's a common deontological rule that would have prevented AA from being banned.
All moral intuitions are ad hoc.
Common??
Show me a place where it is practiced. Spam folders do not count.
Actually, it would prevent all moderation. Would you like to learn one weird trick which would extend your manhood and make all women get naked and bring you offers to reclaim your wealth from a bank in Nigeria while stomping on pink commie faggots?
Free speech absolutism only applies to the reasons for free speech (discourse). Spam does not count - objectionable opinions do.
