Just when your rights matter the most, that's when they are violated. I never use language that your rights are taken or given back. Your rights are either respected or violated. According to the Declaration of Independence, the sole purpose of the government is to protect our rights. anyome saying that a right should not be protected in this ornthat situation should resign their position because they openly declare that they won't honor their oath of office. That's all assuming the premise that the constitution matters and is a binding contract between the office holder and the state.
Freedom of speech is an unalienable right. Unalienable rights are God given rights. The 1st amendment does not grant freedom of speech. Governments have no authority over unalienable rights. All the 1st Amendment does is tell the government that it shall not infringe on our unalienable right to freedom of speech.

MAGA are communists in sheep’s clothing
Be careful. criticize her or anyone in the govt and you may find yourself in an American gulag.
Now that The Bitcoin Senator is saying that the first amendment shouldn't be the 'Ultimate Right', is this the right moment to forget all the BTC in DC crap? Or do we still keep on "orangepilling" them? Something to keep in mind: Rights are not given, they are taken. #Lummis #Bitcoin #Nostr #freespeech #btcindc
There are only two Rights: Those granted to you by others. (You never know how long those last and if/what will be expected in return) Those you can enforce yourself.
Bitcoin in self-custody is the right to speak freely. Few understand(or even care about) this.
Why not just put the link in the original post? Your link comment is dead last on the list in primal and you'd have to read every comment to see it. This isn't Facebook or X, stop acting like it is.
I'm not complaining or name calling. It was just a question and a suggestion. I hope your day gets better.
Good to know she doesn't "feel" that way any more. Usually I want my leaders to actually think or reason instead of feeling.
