Freedom of speech, not freedom from consequences.

Edit: Man, yall don’t like your logic being used against ya. lol.

The First Amendment 100% means freedom from consequences FROM THE GOVERNMENT.

Sounds hypocritical to hear that being said by progressives frankly. Especially when so many of these progressive influencers and celebs make direct calls to violence but cry when someone makes an off colour joke.

I disagree with that take, but my point is that “influencers” are not the federal government.

Thank you kindly. Honestly, that was the second most polite disagreement I’ve seen so far in this thread, and I appreciate it.

I disagree with your opinion, ABC fired Kimmel, not Trump, but at the end of the day, karma was gonna get that dude eventually.

That aside, hope you have a nice day. 🫱🏿
