    Being shunned

    Is the comic talking about “shunning” intolerance? Seems more like asking for government force behind intolerating intolerance

    Having social reprocussions

    Your job in an insanely corporate America can hardly be considered “social”. Corporate America is akin to a second government that just profits from both sides

    Freedom of speech the law only had to protect against the government when written, not corporations as government-proxies. Freedom of speech the idea extends beyond government (companies aren’t people)

    Meanwhile we have people fighting to ban

    My comment covers that as well

    but too often they are spoiled

    it’s a cicle

      Corporations as government proxies have existed for hundreds of not thousands of years. Ever hear of the East India Trading Company? To claim that the law had nothing to do with companies holding that level of power is ridiculous.
