I won't argue whether the (American) left is necessarily protecting free speech at all costs. That's a complicated question. But I think it's a stretch to call the situation "reversed". You can see the right often using the very methods and talking points they seem to criticize on the left. From efforts to shut down protests, to constant usage of patriotic symbols to silence speech ("if you kneel during the anthem, you're disrespecting the flag"), to starting investigations for cases where speech didn't align with their values. Here's an article about growing right-wing threats to free speech on campus for example.
