| Orders of letters separated by spaces we call words are taboo, questioning the authority which dictates the taboo is also taboo which requires free speech in the first place so there is a paradox tricking us into thinking we have free speech. |

| Free speech never existed because we have the ability to get offended. |

| maybe if you went on a site that had no restrictions or rules to be set, you would have your free speech, or to any lawless setting for that matter. But I see the irony of that phrase, freedom of speech. |

The same goverment who says you got a say in its affairs and such is the same one that persecutes someone who states their opinion about how something is wrong and PROVIDES evidence that valifies their opinion like Snowden, even if he leaked that imoformation

| Free speech is a psycho-social illusion, whenever we talk to people our brains trick us into thinking we have free speech when what we will say is predetermined. |

| We are free to say whatever it is we want, however it comes with a consequence. Whatever the result may be. |

The phrase "free speech" has been taken too literally and too seriously. Free speech, in America, means having a say in government, deciding who is fit for the Presidency, or the Supreme Court, etc. Free speech does not mean, saying things, or saying anything you want. It means having A SAY in something. What lagger said isn't justified by the real definition of "free speech." This is not a paradox. It's just really complicated, I don't know why you thought it meant there was a paradox, or that paradoxes could make people think we have free speech. Whether free speech is an illusion or not must be decided on what your definition is for "free speech." Sorry for such a long post. |

Free speech means freedom to say whatever you choose whenever you choose, free will means freedom to do whatever you choose whenever you choose.
Free will is an illusion generated by our brains which are determined by the laws of physics like everything else, free speech is a psychosocial construct. |

| I found out free speech was an illusion months ago, what we are free to say is determined by our brains which are determined by societal norms and memes. |
