It's the kind of thing they wish they could do against "proper targets" if they weren't complete pussy shut-in incels. They're all totalitarians who want to justify using violence against others.
H. L. Mencken wrote about them a lot:
"Herein lies the value of free speech. It makes concealment difficult, and, in the long run, impossible. One heretic, if he is right, is as good as a host. He is bound to win in the long run. It is thus no wonder that foes of the enlightenment always begin their proceedings by trying to deny free speech to their opponents. It is dangerous to them and they know it. So they have at it by accusing these opponents of all sorts of grave crimes and misdemeanors, most of them clearly absurd – in other words, by calling them names and trying to scare them."
"The objection to Puritans is not that they try to make us think as they do, but that they try to make us do as they think."
"At the bottom of Puritanism one finds envy of the fellow who is having a better time in the world, and hence hatred of him."
"It is the dull man who is always sure, and the sure man who is always dull."
"Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy."
"Human life is basically a comedy. Even its tragedies often seem comic to the spectator, and not infrequently they actually have comic touches to the victim. Happiness probably consists largely in the capacity to detect and relish them. A man who can laugh, if only at himself, is never really miserable."
