The exercise of free speech is one of those things that requires constant vigilance. Karl Popper's The Open Society and its Enemies is basically my holy text in this regard, as he wrestles with the question of how liberal societies can safeguard against the rise of Fascism by being... let's say 'intelligent' with their approach to free speech. I don't know if he coined the term, but it's called the 'Paradox of Tolerance'.
