I don't think anyone actually believes that a "free speech absolutist" would tolerate, say, an employee shouting racial slurs in the office through a megaphone. I guess this is supposed to be a "gotcha" about free speech absolutism, but if you're attacking a definition of the term that no one would actually endorse, then maybe it's not a good "gotcha"...


What? Criticizing your boss == "shouting racial slurs in the office through a megaphone"?


These employees aren't being fired for merely criticizing their boss.


Elon Musk told Twitter (TWTR) employees that racist tweets should be allowed

So does that mean you should be allowed to think your boss is an asshole too??


Yes, you should be allowed to think whatever you want. Doubt Musk disagrees with that.
