    I’m not sure what you mean by ‘not being bound to free speech’. It’s the law of the land and kind of an important one.

    I’m curious, in your world view, who decides what is hate speech and what would you do if you disagreed with them?

      You don’t understand what freedom of speech is. You have zero understanding of how anything works apparently. Typical liberal.

        I wouldn’t classify myself as a liberal, nor do I know what I said to lead you down that path. Either way, I’m here to exchange ideas. What am I misunderstanding about free speech?

      The first amendment is prohibiting the government from restricting free speech.
      I, as an individual, can want to restrict speech of racist assholes as much as I feel the need to.
      I am who decides what is hate speech as much as hate preachers decide spewing their bullshit is ok.
      Why should I play by different rules?
