YES
They also said we should respect Nazi free speech rights and the religious beliefs of people who disallow doctors to save their children from dying.
Yeah that's really more the Constitution than anything.
I disagree wholeheartedly. The Constitution was there to serve a small population in the early years of the country. The amendments they made and why they made them have very little if anything at all to do with what radical fascist SCOTUS members claimed since then. There's been years of arguing about this already so I won't bother with it here but suffice to say that I absolutely reject the notion that violent fascist ideologues have free speech rights unless you can show me that Fox News and OAN are providing prime time slots for socialists and communists. No I do not gove one single fuck about "bUt tHeYrE pRiVaTe cOmPaNiEs!" because private companies have been publicly oppressed for opposing views.
You shouldn't. Freedom of speech does have some limitations but not in the ways you suggest. It's an integral part of Constitution and this country.
Just doesn't make any sense man. Not providing an opposing view isn't a violation of free speech. People do it constantly.
