I don’t ever remember any of those people crying about free speech. 2A maybe, but never free speech.
Every time a bunch of racist protesters were criticized (or God forbid, one got fired from their job), I would hear endlessly about free-speech. As if it even applied.
But then when peaceful BLM protesters were being assaulted, it was silence at best and celebration at worst.
And then there are the social media free-speech stans (but only hate-speech being free) that eventually led to Musk buying Twitter.
