The way that sentence is structured implies otherwise, but that could be a misinterpretation on my part, I suppose.

if someone pointing out that you are saying “fact” but aren’t meeting any of the definitions of a fact seems like an attack to you i suspect you’re probably having a bad time on the internet. Again you dodge most of the actual points of the conversation, probably intentionally.
Also i’m pretty sure “Fucking lmfao.” has a redundant “Fucking” in it , but I’m not holding my breath on you caring about that given how this has gone so far.
Doesn’t seem like this is going to go anywhere interesting, so I’ll just add you to the blocklist and be happy nothing of value(to me) was lost.
Here is one example
The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, adopted during the French Revolution in 1789, specifically affirmed freedom of speech as an inalienable right.[6] Adopted in 1791, freedom of speech is a feature of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.
I mean you can just find in page for “United States”
Also , not american (a good example of an actual fact) and i very specifically ruled out the typical american interpretation of freedom of speech.
The fact that i was asking you what interpretation you were using implies i recognise more than just one, so even if i were american (again, not american) the question would still stand.
I also , very specifically asked what interpretation you were using for your argument, but it seems we’ve skipped over the questions entirely and gone straight to factually incorrect personal attacks.
I’ll just assume you don’t have an answer to the actual question given no attempt was made to actually answer it, or perhaps you think your position is unassailable and an answer is beneath you.
Regardless, good luck with fact pointing i suppose.
edit: added answer to your question
Did you mean to reply to me? Or the person above?
Describe what you mean by “freedom of speech” here, I’m assuming you don’t mean the first amendment because that only applies in the US and only for protection against congress ( the US congress ofc ).
Given the above I’m not sure what line you mean here, libel/slander?
You can only point out facts that exist, well, you can technically point out whatever you like and call it “fact” i suppose, but it’s not really accurate unless it’s an actual fact.
Unless accuracy isn’t what you were going for ?
In case you were wondering : https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/fact
Unless you’re a big corp, then fuck with impunity but make sure to pay the “cost of doing business” tax.
If the tax is too high, just buy some lobbyists or political system equivalent.
And you’re free to do so, that’s the entire point of a decentralised system.
They aren’t making decision for anyone but themselves, again, as is the point.
If you don’t agree with whatever they do, find an instance you do agree with or start your own.
Staying or leaving has the same amount of personal agency.
Do you have an example of this ?
