    Free speech means I’m allowed to say whatever I want, and everyone else is also allowed to say whatever I want, right?

    I love when a legal document is basically a hard slapdown. “No, and also fuck you for asking!”

    “Free speech absolutism” is code for “let’s hear this Nazi out”.

    Free speech is the right to yell “theatre!” in a crowded fire.

    - Yippie Slogan

    In all seriousness, I support free speech. That being said, if you’re trying to start a fight, don’t get surprised if you get punched.

    Musk was lucky enough to simply be made fun of and criticized rather than punched, but, like a petulant little child, he threw a tantrum and said the other kids are mean to him.
