"In the US, we believe in Freedom of Speech."

Freedom of speech means the government can't pass laws restricting it. Actually, we do... can't threaten the president, nor shout fire in a crowded theater. You can't say "fuck" on Fox or NBC, but Maher can on HBO, because of the government.

"Any forum that becomes a prominent "public square" should be regulated as such to protect Freedom of Speech."
They can't be regulated by the government; First Amendment.

"Most Americans are woefully ignorant about how we became so powerful and rich,"
We found ourselves in a country rich with natural resources.

"if we have any hope of correcting a bad situation,"
Trump will be impeached by the House.

"You, me, and anyone with any brains in this country needs to do everything in our power to make Freedom of Speech sacrosanct in ALL forums"

Be the change you want to see in the country. Convince SI to let us post "lewd content". Then I'll take you seriously.
