What you're talking about has been disproven by history time and time again. Social consequences are a huge part of how we suck less.
Making certain beliefs socially unacceptable is how we curtail their influence, not acting is if they're simply a difference of opinion.
And yeah, I have intolerant family members. For instance, my dad is a Holocaust denier. We don't talk.

The only appropriate response to an instance that welcomes Nazis is to defederate. If that means effectively cutting all ties to an entire platform, then it sounds like a shitty platform to be on.

Democrats won so decisively in 2008 that they could basically pass any legislation they wanted. Their supermajority in the Senate made them completely immune to the Republican filibusters that would later grind things to a halt.
So isn't it weird that Democrats have never even *tried* to run the same kind of campaign they did with Obama? I mean, if I was even half that successful at something, I'd at least give it another shot, you know?
It's also not like they don't have tons of data to know exactly what would get people out to vote in those kinds of numbers. Yet they always handle those kinds of topics like they're wearing oven mitts.
Do you really need someone as charismatic as Obama to just confidently state that you're going to make universal healthcare happen? Is it beyond the grasp of all but a once-in-a-generation political operator to realize that compromising with yourself on your own policies will stop your momentum dead in its tracks? They can't have possibly thought that voters were dying to hear all about how they were going to means test the hell out of student debt relief, right?
None of it makes any sense in the context of a political party that is doing its honest best to execute a legislative agenda. It does, however, make perfect sense for a party that wants to maintain an extremely unpopular status quo but knows they would never get elected if they just said that. A party like that would need to trip themselves up just enough to keep elections close so that they could always blame their inability to pass substantial legislation on not having enough political power.
Otherwise, they have to make bizarre excuses for why their legislative centerpiece amounted to nothing more than a repackaged Republican healthcare bill. I'm supposed to believe that the reason we don't have a modern, functional healthcare system is because the entire Democratic Party was brought to its knees by *Joe motherfucking Lieberman*? His opposition to a public option was so principled, so full of moral courage that there was no bone that the entire Democratic establishment could throw him tempting enough to get him on board with the single most important item on the Democrats' agenda? They had absolutely no choice but to go, "Oh well, we tried, I guess we just have to copy Mitt Romney's healthcare bill?"
No, it's much simpler to just say, "We really want to do all these cool things for you, but those mean ol' Republicans won't let us."

What's the difference between them and everyone else who criticized Kirk? If that's the only reason they're being targeted, then isn't *everyone* who criticized him, then effectively everyone is a target.
By calling certain people out by name, they are sending the message that they can find out who you are and silence you. Just a general warning is actually *less* effective way to do that. This is a textbook example of the chilling effect.

Like cop shows that make people look guilty for "lawyering up," AKA exercising a basic Constitutional right.

This quote seems apt here:
"The law, in its majestic equality, forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal their bread."

Very cool, Elon. Thank you for taking an overwhelmingly celebrated event and turning people's focus toward the fact that the entire system is rotten from the inside out and needs to be dismantled if we want to stop fuckers like that CEO (and you) for good.

The big difference in my mind about Republicans and Democrats is that Democrats can at least be pushed to do the right thing sometimes, but they have to be **pushed.**

If leftists are an important bloc, isn't it on the fucking campaign to throw them a bone? So why are Democrats ignoring leftist concerns and, instead, courting Republican voters by doing shit like considering Liz Cheney for a cabinet position?
I'm a leftist, I'm going to vote blue down ticket, but I'm absolutely not going to pretend like it's some mystery why leftists, especially the younger cohort, are not motivated to vote.
It's totally fair for a campaign to ask people why they don't vote, but when they tell them, isn't it then on the fucking campaign to *do* something with that information?
Democrats: "Why aren't young people voting?"
Young people explain why.
Democrats: "Okay, but that's dumb. You know you're dumb for not voting because of that, right? Stop being dumb and vote."
Democrats after they lose: "Maybe we should have called more young people dumb..."
