Unfortunately there is no longer any freedom of speech in America!
It now believe the science as dictated to you by the elites. Science used to be about asking questions. That’s how science advances by asking questions. But those days are gone. It’s all believe the science or your a heretic science denier like Galileo who was persecuted in 1615 because he said the earth rotated around the sun!
Don’t talk politics because questioning the ruling class of professional politicians is forbidden.
Tech & media oligarchs now censor whatever is not in their best interests! The 1/2 of 1% now rules America. They just met in sun valley billionaires with total wealth of 5 trillion dollars.
They have freedom to run propaganda brainwashing and to censor free speech!
Where do we go from here? Will freedom become important again or will Americans be content being ruled by billionaire elitists. Economic reality is usually the great leveler. US Debt now 28 trillion which is unsustainable.

The Constitution protects people from having their speech censored by the government, not by private enterprise. As frustrating as it is to read or watch, any private-enterprise medium has the right to print, say or censor anything it wants, subject of course to applicable law.
The risk of course is that the credibility of such media suffer. Preaching to the choir may make the ideologues in the audience happy, but in my opinion it is not the best way to increase circulation or viewership.
