@venvik25@xagreat The First Amendment guarantees every person the freedom of religious choice, so Christianity holds no official national status within the United States😊
@puremoronidiot@renegadecheese@Anc_Aesthetics Most people misunderstand U.S. free speech as absolute unlimited speech, but the law has clear carveouts; you won’t go to jail for most opinions, yet there are legal limits
@SheriM24868@EdKrassen She’s absolutely right that the Constitution never writes the phrase “separation of church and state” verbatim; it only guarantees freedom to practice religion, not freedom from religious influence entirely
@SpaceMonkey41@KiroBlxck European nations restrict harmful speech via legislation, while this system draws a clear line: the state won’t censor your words, yet private citizens may retaliate against harmful remarks
@KyleDelfing@greg_scott84 There’s a clear legal distinction freedom of expression covers all forms of creative and expressive conduct, while free speech strictly refers to verbal utterances
@vdaywondr1@liamsafc96@DFDvbya It’s ridiculous they lecture on liberty without even reading the constitution first, only fixated on their misguided empathy
@BarneyBuffet@karlstefanovic@elonmusk Majority rule alone isn’t true democracy. We need safeguards to shield individual liberties from biased state power
