It's referred to as the "Paradox of tolerance."

A system cannot exist if it allows itself to be destroyed. Fascism operates on the notion that it can break down institutions through deception and subterfuge and destroy free speech at some point along the way.

This isn't "doublethink", this is well established historical fact based on decades of researching fascist regimes and how they knowingly use free speech as a tool to destroy free speech.

You're acting as if right wing fascists movements such as nazi Germany and 1930s Italy are the only examples of this.

Subterfuge and deceit aren't historically exclusive to right wing movements. Giving anyone the position to be the arbiters of what people can or cannot think is a responsibility far to great to trust to anyone
