Then it's not free speech. It's speech with sane boundaries. Calling it free is a lie.

You are conflating the ideals of free speech and trying to merge it with realistic expectations.

The reality is free speech does not work.



We can label it something else then, but I agree that absolute free spech does not work.


"absolute free speech" lol. If I used Free wifi at starbucks and before I left the clerk tried to charge me a dollar for internet because it wasn't "absolutely free" then I would call it false advertising.

Don't use the words free and speech together if it's not "absolutely free."
