• That’s free speech with an asterisk. It also means you have this big gray area and someone policing and deciding what is and isn’t hate speech, so you won’t ever see completely free speech thoughts from everyone.

    You can’t have your cake, and eat it too. Having rules against what can be said or talked about means you’re in a bubble, for better or worse.

      Oh no, policing. Like in everything else in a functioning society because people do things they are not supposed to. You’re free to drive wherever but you’re but free to ram your car into pedestrians. Oh my god the oppression.

          Somebody calling up your family and workplace and tell them you’ve been stealing for your drug habit are also just words.
