You have got to be kidding.
Not at all. Pope Leo X excommunicated Martin Luther because he dared print and distribute theology that was in direct conflict with the Holy Roman Church. At the time, the church was the most powerful socioeconomic power on the planet.
It was the printing press that enabled Martin Luther’s message to be spread, much as the internet has allowed “The Masses” to communicate without being filtered through ABCNBCCBSCNNFOX and the NYT/WAPO first.
I consider Martin Luther’s work to be the pioneer First Amendment battle in all of human history.
