“Free speech” can have a few meanings.

There's the 1A one, where the government isn't to restrict your speech, and you can argue about absolutism (fire in a theater, etc.)

And there's the suggestion everyone should get a free platform, and suffer no consequences for whatever they say. In other words, acting like a ten year old (or not even that. Some 10yo are much smarter than that, and realize their acts have consequences)

Nobody is suggesting you shouldn't have consequences for what you say. People are saying you shouldn't be banned for things that legal.

Is that not a consequence? Private business and all that

Fire in a crowded theater, xenophobic comments to a trigger happy crowd…

I'm not sure what are you getting at?
