Someone who claims to defend the Freedom of Speech to
hell and back, while not understanding how it actually works.
They claim that social media companies taking down TOS violating content is a violation of the right to free speech, but in
reality social media companies are private companies, which aren'
t bound by the First Amendment. This means that they can set up their own boundaries of what is and isn't okay to say on their site.
Despite them complaining how they are being censored online, most of the
time they don't actually care about Free Speech, and just want to spread extremist views online without punishment.
There are social media sites that cater to these
people (like Twitter), but they usually become
Nazi echo chambers filled with toxicity.
What Free Speech Absolutists don't get about social
media is that they are private companies and can
set boundaries on what is and isn't
okay without it being a violation of The First Amendment.
