How was protection of kids ever used to limit your freedom of speech?
Seems pretty absolutist to me if even anti terrorism and protection of kids, is against your free speech ideal.
Anti terrorism I agree may be used as an excuse to make limitations we don’t really need. But protection of kids, I think for instance pedophilia, and that’s non negotiable. There are situations where freedom of speech is triumphed by other considerations. Your post seem to not consider that by including even protection of kids, as not enough to make any limitations.
Difference is I recognize freedom of speech actually can have limits in those regards.
I’m not saying we should limit freedom of speech willy nilly, I live in one of the countries in the world with the highest degree of freedom of speech, and I can say the American way of handling it isn’t it.
And the way of handling it isn’t removing the regulation that is there, but improving it. But most Americans have no idea what free speech really is, to them it’s just a slogan, and then we have idiots like Elon Musk who claim they protect it, while all they do is enable racism and bigotry.
I’m not an anything absolutist.
