I am a free speech warrior, I am literally willing to DIE to protect your right to speak freely

I have pronouns and reactionaries are cringe

    Free speech is obviously when I get to call you slurs and you don’t get to criticise me

      People who claim that they can’t say what they want anymore are people who can still say what they want, but they don’t like backlash

    I’m orange but with conviction - I may hate what you say, but I still believe you have the right to say it.

    But also to hear shit back if people don’t like it. Or be shamed. Basically believe there should be no legal or administrative action tied to speech itself, but how people react to your speech is nothing more than consequence of your actions.

      I have just invented a radical new form of free speech, I’ll call it pure free speech.

      In pure free speech, you’re free to say anything to anyone without having any consequences whatsoever.

      This is achieved by everyone agreeing to not respond to speech in any way.

      Someone shouts fire in a cinema? that’s fine, it’s their choice, nobody listen.

      Somebody asked you for the time? That’s fine, it’s their choice, don’t respond in any way.
