    Thank you for attempting to inform me, but it was unnecessary. As I mentioned already and as my post made clear, I am aware that there is more than one form of free speech. Your view is parochial; concepts of free speech exist beyond your narrow definition and your narrow country.

    I will attempt to explain OP’s point again, since you are still somehow missing it. OP is saying that there are consequences for speech if the speaker is liberal and no consequences for speech if the speaker is conservative. OP is saying that standards are applied differently based on your political beliefs. OP does not specify who is meting out the consequences.

      The boy who cried wolf. Time and time again. When one actually showed up. No one cared, because no one believed it.

      I’m fully aware of what point OOP is trying to make. It just doesn’t have anything to do with Freedom of speech.
