All together now: “We all live in a fascist regime, a fascist regime, a fascist regime”
Freedom of speech… until you try to use it.
The most protected form of speech is money. Apparently. Which is really weird since money isn’t, you know, speech, at all. But what do I know, I’m broke as shit.
The more money you have the more innocent you are. Billionaires are basically the most innocent people in society, while the poor are most guilty.
Holy shit, this is universally up voted? Are the people here really this uninformed when it comes to free speech? Not one person has challenged you on this BS?
Free speech is something that protects you from the government. This is clearly some private event that has the right to allow or disallow whatever they want on their property. This is like if I was invited into your house, I called your wife a cunt, you asked me to leave, and then I said the ridiculously stupid “you’re violating my freedom of speech!”
Is the Lemmy hive mind even more dumb than reddits?

The First Amendment to the Constitution protects speech no matter how offensive its content. Restrictions on speech by public colleges and universities amount to government censorship, in violation of the Constitution.

First sentence on the Wiki and on the ACLU page. Go back to Reddit if you’re going to be ignorant and insult people.
While you are free to say what you want, you don’t have the freedom from consequences of what you say, except from being critical of the government. I think that’s the point he was trying to make, but he wasn’t very articulate about it.
But there still are limited restriction, for example you can’t talk about (or even look at) any classified information you come across. And whistle blowing has become all but illegal.
I think the non-cropped version with the corporate sponsors shows it better.
This oppression was brought to you by Nissan.
