Difference is I recognize freedom of speech actually can have limits in those regards.
I'm not saying we should limit freedom of speech willy nilly, I live in one of the countries in the world with the highest degree of freedom of speech, and I can say the American way of handling it isn't it.
And the way of handling it isn't removing the regulation that is there, but improving it. But most Americans have no idea what free speech really is, to them it's just a slogan, and then we have idiots like Elon Musk who claim they protect it, while all they do is enable racism and bigotry.
