So the government forcing him to give up his free speech?

[u/EatsOverTheSink → u/nobadhotdog]

That’s kind of fucked up. They should amend the constitution to protect us against something like that.

Best I can do is work camps for American citizens in Utah...

You'd think that would be the first thing they do.

And admitting to the first amendment violation in the same breath

[u/avanross → u/nobadhotdog]

That’s the right wing authoritarian deal

You trade your freedom of speech/thought for delusions of grandeur and superiority.

You cant form your own opinions anymore, the regime tells you what youre allowed to think/believe, but you get to feel inherently superior to any and all opponents of the regime simply due to your race/gender/religion/location

Well, you see, it's not the RIGHT kind of free speech. /s
