    “Free speech” is just a dog whistle and gas lighting now.

    You’re not wrong, but I remember when free speech was more of a liberal issue. Freedom for artistic expression and all that. Freedom to curse in music, freedom to create and view porn etc.

      Coincidentally, the window has moved with the common usage of the term and those are now considered revocable privileges instead of permanent freedoms.
