Yes. That old fashioned freedom of speech stuff people used to have before political correctness.
For years now people skirt around "physically challenged person" or "undocumented immigrant" to avoid censure.
Now ..... Business Insider, Kiara Keane May 9, 2020---- "The city of San Antonio in Texas has unanimously passed a resolution condemning the use of terms such as "Chinese virus" and "kung-fu virus" as hate speech."
But Ann Coulter can call President Trump a "retard." And all the media have called him a murderer (virus policies), a racist, a xenophobe (for trying to enforce existing legal borders of the USA) and lots of "mentally incompetent" and "a clown" insults tossed out daily. No worries---a public figure. Try saying the slightly wrong thing about protected members of the Dem socialist family. Look out.
