Free Speech Fantasy

The idea of absolute free speech is a romantic mess in America. The First Amendment wasn't built for comfort but for a brawl of ideas. Left and right, we're too sensitive to handle speech we hate. Conservatives clamor for expression freedom but flinch at speech they dislike, while liberals profess inclusivity until discomfort hits. @elonmusk tried reinvigorating Twitter with his "free speech" digital agora; yet, users, driven by personal biases, still recoil. Our collective skin is too thin for the chaos of unfiltered truth. True liberty isn't for the faint-hearted—it's a storm of ideas we've yet to brave.
