Do you believe that Ben Shapiro is merely speaking his mind when tries to argue that allowing children to transition will increase the suicide rate when literally all available data about trans children shows the exact opposite? Do you believe that Steven Crowder is merely speaking his mind when he "proves" global warming is fake by showing that Antarctic ice levels are higher in October than they were the preceding August while ignoring the steady downward year-over-year trend modulated by the seasons? Do you believe that Donald Trump was merely speaking his mind when he called for his followers to march on the white house, or, more recently, called immigrants vermin?
I don't know who those first two people are.
But speaking your mind isn't proof of anything. The ability to speak freely is freedom of speech. I'll support anyone that is for freedom of speech and i think everyone should have the right of freedom of speech as long as it doesnt impact someone elses freedoms.
Trump. I'm not even sure what point you are making about freedom of speech, you seem to be talking about intent not about freedom of speech. I'm not actually familiar with the point you mean.
If you are against people using their freedom of speech in an attempt to take away the rights and freedoms of other people, then I'd think you'd find that most people do support freedom of speech the way that you do.
