Why is it a shitpost?
sophistsworld··on Free Speech Is in Trouble
Very few people on the pro free speech side are saying they should be given soap boxes for free. On the other hand the "protected right to our thoughts and words" is under major assault as my examples show. Redirecting the debate from the later to the former could be confusion born out of ignorance or be bad faith.

Because they are using megaphones to do so.

I think it's very interesting that you keep mentioning megaphones when one manifestation of whats said in TFA is left wing activists literally shouting down speakers that had been invited to speak at their universities.
