1980 wants it's republican talking point back.

It's 2026, we've seen that free speech absoluters don't actually care about protecting all speech.

We've seen 'small government' and 'no government power over your life' supporters suddenly just fine with it when women's right to choose is taken away by the government. Or when the government wants to decide/legally enforce gender their gender definition.

We've seen the 'less government' people do nothing as the Feds trample local laws, illegally seize voter roles (voting is a states issue), attempts to inject federal requirements into elections and attach what is a large cost for some people to the right to vote.

So we're going to need more nuance than a disengenuous 1980 platitude on the topic.
