Freedom of speech means you can't be arrested for what you say. Any policies that ban certain types of speech are very clearly unconstitutional.

We're free to openly be as big of a piece of shit as we like with no consequences. If you use your freedom of speech to call us out, or use your freedom of association to kick us off your property you're oppressing us

Using freedom of speech to defend your opinion is literally saying "my opinion is valid because it's not illegal".

So the GOP is by policy against freedom of speech as you've defined it, and is passing laws that are unconstitutional, and thus the initial mention of freedom of speech is a non sequitur not intended as an example of GOP policy that isn't bad, got it, glad we established that. So do you have any examples of policies the GOP does have that aren't bad?
