You can't in good faith make the claim that the far right is interested in actual free speech. They'd rather see people get dropped from helicopters than let those they deem to be "degenerates" voice their political opinions.
TD, /r/conservative, /r/uncensorednews [1], and all the shitholes on voat have one thing in common, they all ban pretty much anyone who goes against their narratives.
And TD was far right, not as far right as /r/uncensorednews was, but still pretty far right. But perhaps your Overton window is much further to the right than mine (and northern Europe's) is.
[1] The subreddit was banned about two years ago but had 100k+ subs and featured pretty frequent racism, anti-semitism, transphobia, and neo-nazi imagery (the head mod is a self-described neo-nazi after all).
