Freedom of speach is also to be able to make jokes or critizicms of the goverment without you being thrown into a gulag because of it. But if someone uses it as an excuse to be verbally awful to someone else, that isn't using the right of free speach, it's called being a total dickwart.

But its not illegal

it’s not illegal to be a dick

but harassment IS illegal, which is repeatedly being a dick to a point that it causes high levels of emotional distress

People have DIED from internet harassment and you don’t think people should be held accountable?


why are you even defending this

why defend the right to be an asshole over the right to be safe from assholes?

i assume theyre a dickwad who repeatedly uses the “freedom of speech” excuse which, by the way, if your only excuse for doing uncool things is because its not illegal then its a piss poor defense. the laws do not dictate morality.

For that reason all speech must be protected. Also, If what your saying is the case expain Snyder v. Phelps. A wise man once said i may not agree with what you have to say, but i will defend to the death yoyr right to say it. Thats how i feel about all speech.
