America does not have freedom of speech. That is a privilege for persons of color and feminists.
People can make up their excuses (an employer sets work rules,private vs. public,freedom meant meant only within the government) but we are not free to speak any more than in Stalin’s Soviet Union or the pre-1776 days when happy words about England and King George were free but unhappy ones from Samuel Adams or Tom Paine against the Crown were subject to death threats. Some “free speech.”
Also, Facebook,Twitter,Google,Amazon etc. can set the definition of “hate speech” or “obscene” and say Pence or Rush Limbaugh are banned, old William F.Buckley books are not allowed to be sold or seen online to read and other absurd things.
Take away guns and then take away words(as in, off to jail for being offense).
