I don't think a claim like this is meaningful without a precise definition of "speech". And, consequently, I think you'll find any attempt to define which things are not "speech" ends up being functionality equivalent to dialing back from that theoretical 100%.
In general, you can't have 100% freedom over any finite resource. If there's only one dessert in the fridge, you and I can not both have 100% freedom to eat it.
If you presume that any meaningful "speech" has some non-zero audience size, then speakers are competing for the finite attention of other humans. You can't have perfect freedom for that.
