@lambdagrrl for at least as long as I've been paying attention (past twenty years or so), it has been a point of constantly-repeated political dogma in the United States that freedom of speech for every marginalized group will be cut off if we allow it to even be possible to deny free speech to Nazis - and I mean specifically Nazis. Nazis are the example every maintainer of this principle cites as "we gotta let them talk or the government will just silence everyone they disagree with".

Which, I think, makes centrists even more willing to defend Nazis being publicly Nazis the moment the Nazis manage to start mainstreaming themselves.
