The right to protest is the hallmark of any democracy. Hinder that, and you have an undemocratic state. Defamation is a civil matter between private parties and not a direct governmental concern. IOW, if someone is called a prutza, they have a right to sue the party and prove in court they aren’t a prutza. The government has no right or ability to preemptively prevent speech, even if potentially defamatory.
