What we call free speech really means having the freedom to speak in opposition to whatever you consider wrong/your enemy/injustice. It is to have an opposite or alternative view the speaker believes is “better/truer” than the prevailing view. True freedom of speech is to support everyone/everything and not be in opposition to anyone/anything. It is not constrained by its “rightness/wrongness.” It does not have enemies because it is all things to all people. It is “both/and” speech. It says, “Yes!” to everyone and everything. It gains nothing in the “winning” sense, because it has everything in every sense and “losing” is not part of its algorithm.
