Communication is a two way street. Speaking and listening. I'm not sure if free speech is currently restricted so much as listening is restricted. Censorship could be said to place limitations on both.
Free speech absolutism - are you going to force people to listen? Who has the right to decide what content is available, and where? Are media platforms then compelled to not de-platform? I am literally censoring the TV when I turn it off. You think that's wrong?
Don't understand what you mean by free speech absolutism, concept doesn't make too much sense to me.
- AnthonyMouse 4y agoFree speech is violated when someone interferes with a willing speaker talking to a willing listener because of the content of their communications. Alice doesn't have to listen to Bob, but if Carol interferes with Alice listening to Bob, that's censorship.
