I don't know, worrying about "freedom of speech" on a site that still lets Ike the Dragon the Nazi comment feels like much ado about nothing.

A shitty group was emboldened by a bad president who was only elected because of a quirk of the electoral system. They said, "hey, it's our time now," most everyone else said, "no, no it isn't". That's how it works.

Of course, the problem with fascism and violence is that violence is promised by fascism. It's about "forcible oppression of opposition." That's, like, a defining tenet of the belief system. If someone says "I'm a Nazi" they are saying "I'm going to get violent if you disagree with me." If someone says they're "anti-fascist", that means they are saying "I'm going to get violent if you get violent."
