Absolute free speech is an american concept that does not exist in the US constitution. The protection is only invoked when the government is suppressing speech. And then there are disparate levels of free speech protection stemming from the most cherished to the least valued forms of speech. Political speech is afforded the greatest protection because it is considered vital to a democracy. Sexual and commerical speech the least protection and are subject to reasonable time place manner restrictions. In the USA free speech has been championed by the left.

If a speaker is not espousing the prevailing viewpoint the speaker can go fuck herself. No debate. No lets listen to and consider another viewpoint. That sort of suppression and intolerance of contrary political-speak is sweeping the nation. I know it is history repeating itself as human nature has its undeniable influence. When various groups become prominent or come to power there is a strong tendency to silence any opposition and do what it takes to perpetuate the power structure. And yet it is has become increasingly alarming how militant it has gotten in USA.
