Public discourse is an educational experience. Universities aren't there to just teach you mathematics and basket weaving, it's there to challenge your viewpoint and make you question your assumptions. That comes from being exposed to differing, even extreme, viewpoints.

So we're just calling anything "education" these days.

You don't like Kyle Rittenhouse. I don't like Kyle Rittenhouse. He's a horrible human being and a terrible role model.

This falls under the "I will fight to the death for your right to speak" philosophy.

Again, not challenging his right to speak. Challenging the value of what he has to say.
