Free Speech is not a RIGHT, it's a Principle. Why you won't agreed?
In all society and human kind history the free speech have been manipulated for the guy in control, now is Social Media who control what people says or don't, not depend on biggest population depending on algorithms. If i said "America is the greatest country on the world" and some guy from Russia or Sirya don't agree he will report my comment and my comment will be considered a Hate Speech thanks to Social Media algorithm, they called Community Standard policies.
That is why we have to support Free Speech like it or not.
I donow just my humble opinion, what do you think??

Americans are entitled to their opinions and are allowed in most cases to express them openly. However, because we live in a civilized country, the exercise of freedom of expression/free speech is subject to restrictions. That is because others in our civilized society have rights too, so we must afford them protection. Our fellow Americans have protection from slander (untrue speech about them), and of course we must protect national security, law and order, and public health. We value those things equally to free speech, so when someone's speech comes in conflict with those other values, that person can expect others to object, sometimes by way of a lawsuit for slander, sometimes by arrest if it's a matter of breaking a law. You cannot use your voice (or your typing fingers) for harmful purposes using "free speech" as an excuse.
