Free speech
Two different ways to handle speakers whose ideas you disagree with:
You can have men with scarves over their faces and kaffiyehs around their necks hustle the speaker off the stage before he has a chance to deliver his address.
Or you can silently ridicule the speakers in a clever and humorous way, while they deliver their address.
Guess which of these are perpetrated by which political "wing."

The 'tinfoil hat' bit is great - applicable to so many situations.

Actually, without any description of the tactics employed by either group it would be possible to identify the left- and right-wing groups, simply by your description of one side's tactics as "clever and humorous". I can't imagine anything pertaining to the left (even the American left which is everywhere else's centre-right) receiving such a description on Kesher Talk.
You'll have to make these quizzes harder....

Oh, and FWIW I think I consider both speakers (or sets of speakers) as equally despicable, and both sets of protesters as equally fatuous.
