It's gonna be funny when this gets to the Supreme Court
Either they undermine their own sacred texts and they say the government gets to define what is or isn't free speech, or they go against the opinion of the overwhelming majority of the political class of this country
I think they'll go for the first option, and this will open Pandora's box on all sorts of government censorship which will clog up the Supreme Court's docket. Then they'll go through, case by case, and determine what free speech protections apply to every single grievance brought before them.
Banning queer literature will be allowed by the first amendment, banning racist posters on Facebook will be illegal, etc
Very predictable. At this point it appears “free speech” is just a nice term for racism.
