“It’s also common for me to read a story about someone’s free speech rights being obviously violated, and then I realize it happened in Canada or the UK, where they don’t honor the US constitution”

You’re joking right? You haven’t heard of all the Americans getting fired, blacklisted and otherwise ruined for saying the “wrong” word, or wearing the wrong hat or t-shirt?

I’m not talking about that stuff. I’m talking about the more serious stuff, like what happened to Jordan Peterson.

I don’t believe the constitution protects you from being treated badly by other people. In fact, I think it protects their right to do so. The constitution DOES protect you from the GOVERNMENT doing it though.

And the government has guns and can use them to force you to comply.
