> "Free speech isn't the right to have everyone listen to every idea." Entirely true and I 100% agree but that's not what the "other choices" argument is about. There are groups attempting to force expression of certain opinions to only be through "other choices" and preventing third parties from interfering with communication between a speaker and people who voluntarily want to listen to that idea, no matter how good the intentions of the third party are, _is_ very much a matter of freedom of speech. For example, note the "seek, receive, and impart" part of Article 19 of the UN Declaration of Human Rights.[0] That's why the "other choices" argument isn't persuasive; its underlying intent is often interference with voluntary communication in order to cut it off.
