          I think it’s fascinating that you can really define their style of free speech as freedom to discriminate while pretty much the rest of the world treats free speech as freedom from discrimination.

        The republicans are the ones championing free speech lol. Democrats are the ones trying to push through censorship and get rid of free speech.
