I have founds lots and lots of anecdotal evidence, women being raped multiple times in different occasions, Rotherham, people working with new immigrants and giving account of how violent they, "no-go zones" where police are too afraid to patrol, etc. It's just hard to find 'official' statistics that give a link, because of reasons like: the studies are hidden behind paywalls, the evidence going against the official agenda. You know that the study you cited was made with the agenda of 'dispelling myths' about immigration and crime. Hardly unbiased. I mean it is somewhat more plausible that people from Mexico aren't that bad, but how can you really think that people from hardcore Muslim countries, countries with a completely different culture, with a low IQ, lots of human rights abuses, most of whom aren't even literate in their own language, do you really think these people would be an boon to Western countries?
I'm talking about communism because you seem intent on unfairly labeling Nazism as the worst political ideology. I'm simply pointing out the inconsistency of your position. Of course communism is violent, it's not like 100% will voluntarily hand over their property to the state. As I've already said, you can call lots of political ideologies violent. But instead of using "directly incites violence" as a basis for why it Nazism should be excluded from free-speech, you've basically shifted the goalposts and now you're saying "I think it's bad, therefore it should be excluded". That's not how free speech works, you combat words with words, and violence with violence. Your reasoning is little different from Antifa, who because they label Milo or Richard Spencer as 'nazis', gives them justification to use violence to stop them talking.
I think Islam is violent, and I think that people who advocate for unrestricted Muslim immigration are arguing for something that will cause violence and disorder in our society. Does that give me justification to use violence against anyone arguing for immigration?
I just feel like a lot of alt-right politics are generally based on "feels" instead of actual statistics. Like you said, you can only really find anecdotal evidence, which shouldn't mean much when it comes to policy making. The real world often doesn't match expectations. I think most people would assume immigrants commit more crime, but if data repeatedly shows that they don't, then that's just a fact that people will have to accept. Statistics are the most important thing when it comes to policymaking outside of a simple race to get the most votes, which I think is something that should be avoided in a proper democracy.
I also don't think I've ever said Nazism is the "worst" political ideology. There are definitely arguments to be made for it, but frankly I don't want to bother making them. I don't particularly care if Nazism is "the worst" or not, but I can definitely identify it as something that doesn't belong in society.
Directly inciting violence IS grounds for removing free speech of spreading ideology. I'm happy to say the same thing about gulag-denying Stalinists- they shouldn't be allowed a public platform either, because they're spreading dangerous shit that doesn't do anything good for society.
Antifa are different because they're vigilantes who use physical violence (attacking people) as opposed to the state properly dealing with them via things like warnings and, if necessary, jail. You can feel free to consider intervention by the state as "violence", but I feel like you're just arguing semantics at that point. Most people see the difference between people getting attacked in the streets for existing, and people being arrested for making a Nazi speech. It's a really clear contrast that you'd probably understand better if you were in Europe.
Also I read a really cool reddit post about Islam that explains how it doesn't quite advocate violence in a way that you'd expect. I haven't verified anything here though, because frankly Islam isn't interesting to me, but feel free to check it out if you want.
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuesti ... n/ddbrmny/Your last argument is flawed because that'd be an indirect cause of violence (Muslims coming into the country leading to more violence, which isn't even necessarily true) as opposed to a direct one (i.e. importing radical extremist muslims that want to bomb people). Vetting exists for a reason, and America's has presumably been one of the best in the world. Getting into America isn't easy.
