But for those classes it is a censorship with a relatively limited effect.

In this case we're talking about removing these opinions from the internet.

the initial requests we received to terminate their service came from hackers who literally said: "Get out of the way so we can DDoS this site off the Internet."

I don't see any practical difference between this and what China does on the internet. Only difference is I agree with the side that gets to censor here.

Does it suprise you that on opinion which yearns to de-humanize untold millions and seeks to destroy them finds pushback?

That's not censorship, that's action begetting reaction and as long as it is limited to groups that aim to do bad things to large numbers of people I'm perfectly fine with it.

Note that this particular gem of a website is run by one of the worlds foremost trolls, a man who I believe is not exactly 100% in the head and who loves to watch the world burn. If you feel that he deserves a platform I suggest you make your own Neo Nazi friendly CDN and take some business away from Cloudflare, they won't mind.
