You don’t police the English language. I don’t know what else to tell you.
One phrase can refer to multiple things; “free speech” often refers to the ability to say whatever you like* without repurcussions from an authoritative figure, be that the government, Elon Musk’s cronies, or Lemmy moderators. Obviously it is not a constitutionally protected right in the latter contexts, but then again the phrase wasn’t “right to free speech.”
Ok dude sure thing.
Excuse me, I have swim my car to work.
are you saying that free speech as a concept was invented by the US Government? and that the right to free speech can only be enforced by it?
free speech can mean, and has meant, many things to many different people. the concept has been around for over 1000 years. there’s plenty more to say about “free speech” than just the rights specifically provided to american citizens.
No. Freedom of speech as a concept means freedom to criticize the government. Not just the US government.
Anyone that thinks otherwise, as someone once said, is a dolt.
You’re the dolt lmao no one else has such a restrictive definition of the word. Context matters.
