If freedom of speech is absolute, how come it's not applied for private spaces and for the Internet?

Freedom of speech does not apply to:

Child pornography

Threats of violence

Why is the show The Big Bang Theory so hated?

Insider trading

Insurrection

Perjury

You have freedom of speech. If I loan you my computer, I can tell you not to use it for certain things, because it’s mine, you have no right to use it, and if I give you permission to use it I can tell you what you can and can’t do with it.

Fraud

And much, much more.

Is it wrong that I picked to be a Christian (as a teenager/14-year-old) even with knowing all of the information about other religions/atheism?

Terroristic threats

If you’re wondering why free speech doesn’t apply to the internet, it’s because you have no right to use other people’s stuff for free.

I am skinny, I have been doing 100 pushups a day for more than a month and am seeing very few results, everything is so unfair, I workout more than anyone I know and am still skinny, why cant I build muscle?

HIPAA violations

Trade secrets

No freedom is absolute.

What are the basic human needs according to psychology? What are the consequences of not meeting these needs?

That’s what it is. You have no right to use other people’s stuff. If people let you use their stuff, they can tell you how you can use it, and they can tell you to stop using it any time they want.

False advertising

Conspiracy

Why do Democrats look like snowflakes and Republicans look like Vikings?

You have freedom to travel. If I loan you my car, I can tell you not to take it out of town, because it’s mine, you have no right to use it, and if I give you permission to use it I can tell you what you can and can’t do with it.
