All it means is that the government cannot arrest you for saying somethnig
Actually, it means a lot more than that.
It means you’re entitled to a platform - that you can say things into a microphone to a large crowd gathered for any reason on federal land that’s open to individuals… including to talk about how other humans are deserving of hate. We don’t owe them a space to spread hate speech. We can do better.
Right, well we are obviously against free speech as we have said many times, though not necessarily here, if it includes that as a definition.
We don’t believe every hateful thing should be able to be said, published etc. However, we’re also not statists, so have no real way to stop it beyond not allowing it in our communities, never writing, publishing or letting anything hateful be said, and using social pressure to stop giving hateful people and groups a platform, or to stop others listening to them.
This is because we don’t believe in using the injustice and legal systems in order to stop such things.
