The problem with those panels, in my opinion, isn't the defense of free speech itself, it's ending the conversation with a defense of free speech. This shifts the discussion away from how awful those other ideas are and instead distracts people with a debate over free speech itself.
If you truly want to support a free marketplace of ideas you have to be an active participant, you can't expect others to pick up the bullhorn for good in your place.
Ironically the 'paradox' of 'Tolerance of intolerance' kind of argues for people self-selecting into groups which is anti-thetical to the intent lol.
