People don't understand that the constitution is the peoples terms and conditions to the government, not the other way around. It's not about what we're allowed to do, it's about what they aren't allowed to do. And the first thing they aren't allowed to do is prevent free speech, and the expression thereof in various forms including accepted religious practices (can't sacrifice humans and claim religious right for example).

[@randomuserame]

He's technically (legally) correct. The constitution itself isn't even absolute. It is a subordinate/subsequent creation that followed The Declaration of Independence; which states that "the governed" may "alter or abolish" government to secure their future liberty, and thereby choose the manner by which they consent to be governed. However the _principle_ of free speech isn't just absolute, it's an objective fact of reality. "Free speech"/1A is the written recognition of the free will that exists in all creatures (human and lower animals), existing within them from the moment of their births. While technically not absolute, The DoI and the US Const. both interplay and reinforce each other, as that provision in the Declaration of Independence cannot be effected/triggered _without_ the 1st Amendment from the Constitution, nor without the protection of the 1st, by the 2nd... Which makes the 2nd Amendment the true backbone which upholds the concept of freedom itself: Its the free will to to defend your free will itself.... by force if necessary.

@@robtrawick1 The "yelling fire in a crowded" misconstrued "legal precedent" is not a precedent at all, but an offhand comment made by Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes in a much earlier case. What you're talking about is direct incitement to violence, which was never considered constitutional speech by even the most ardent pro-1A adherents, including the Founders themselves. It's not that free speech isn't absolute as such, but that the rights of others cannot be subordinated by unlawful actions under the guise of being constitutionally protected. Slander, incitement, and threats of violence are not and never have been protected because all three impede on the rights of others. Jordan Peterson's standard that all other forms of speech are constitutional still stands, the alarm modern Democrat standard that "misinformation and disinformation" (i.e. anything that Democrats don't like being said) is also lumped in with incitement/threats/slander.

Precisely! He's one whose voice certainly weighs greatly given his intellect and highly expressive educational background. I'm glad they're letting him talk and are also disregarding the preposterous moves against him from his country's psychology council board

The 1st amendment is NOT absolute. Anyone with a HS diploma knows that! Peterson censors comments on his Daily Wire KZbin channel. Comments with no foul language or threats. Just comments that disagree with him! Talk about a TYRANT! Should we just let AI bots cause a run on banks and collapse our economy because the speech in those tweets, etc is protected?

The Regressive Zombie apocalypse is upon us, all ... Some may not even notice. Many zombies are in charge. Many can blend in and appear competent ... even "present". The RZA is not what was adverstise... Zombie Land looked compelling... so did WWZ and The Book of Eli. Yes, they want to take it all down, Western Civilization is at risk and has been for a while. I think their trick will be to blame everyone, because _we_ somehow allowed *IT* to happen, yet much of this was in motion, before any of us were alive. Some say since at least 1913 when Congress (the opposite of progress?) created The Federal Reserve, central bank system.
