You're confusing words with other things that have nothing to do with words.
Words are words, violence is violence.
And I saw the videos that were taken from inside of the trucker's protest, they were completely peaceful. The truckers were protesting the dystopian surveillance that came along with those QR code apps. Did you know that those apps communicate your personal details wirelessly? Completely without your consent?
The sheer volume of databreaches that big-tech-owned services go through all the time and you feel comfortable letting those idiots handle all your identity information and to let them send it to anyone who's able to spoof the signal to download it?
You're probably thinking about the nazi flags that were seen at the trucker protests. And those people holding those flags were definitely NOT feds helping to peddle a narrative...right? It's not like the media would lie to get us to hate our neighbors without listening to what they have to say or anything.
Free speech is freedom of expression. Expression extends beyond words. If all you protect is words, then you're not protecting much. But if you allow any expression, then bad things happen.
Wow, you put a lot of words in my mouth, ostensibly to give yourself something to fight me about. It's too bad I never said any of that stuff, and super suspicious that you completely ignored what I did say about the flu trucks Clan. Almost like you're trying to peddle a narrative 🤔
