Repeat "freedom of speech" enough times, and it stops having its meaning. So when the authoritarians come to power, you can scream "freedom of speech" all you want - no one will care. It's a brilliant tactic. It worked in the other direction with "fake news". Used to mean "actual made up news, usually from Russian proxy 'news' sites". Now the term is completely void of meaning.
