    This what y’all sound like when you say freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences btw.

        Nah. There’s just a difference between someone refusing to repeat your words and the state killing you for saying them.

        A distinction that stupid fucking phrase brainlessly repeated by morons doesn’t illuminate.

      No, it’s the exact opposite. “Freedom of speech” is the state not retaliating for things you say. “Is not freedom from consequences” means other people can still cut ties with you for what you say. People who say that aren’t saying that the state is allowed to retaliate, that’s the opposite from freedom of speech, and the event in OP’s post is not freedom of speech. It just sounds like you don’t understand what either freedom of speech or freedom of consequence mean.

      You are entirely unclear on what stance you have, what did you mean by this whacked out crazy statement you made
