Ken WhiteI was procrastinating from making pie and so I wrote a post: why the observation “well, there are exceptions to the First Amendment” is not particularly helpful.

OK, I read this, and my question is: what about the historical exceptions? For my interests, this comes down to mostly the first WW imprisonments of socialists advocating resistance to the draft, Eugene Debs in jail, etc. Since the Supreme Court back then had no problem with this, how can the Supreme Court be said to have a consistent view of what these exceptions are?
