People will just keep pushing in one direction if nobody pushes back. But we can't push back because those people don't even listen to the other side. They want to censor any pushback, so they can live in their fantasy world that everybody believes the same things they do except for a tiny group of fascists (when in fact is is at least 65% of people who disagree with them).
It reminds me of something a dog trainer told me: If a dog growls, and you scold it, you can indeed train it to not growl. But if you go down that path, the first hint you will have that something is wrong is when the dog bites you.
The most important and relevant thing they are ignorant of is how righteously steaming angry they have made their political opponents. And that this is not a safe way to proceed.
