    Afaik free speech protection in the US only protects against the government. Private companies, like Facebook, can still decide to not host you for whatever reason they want.
    I’d say this is unlikely to change soon, looking at how little the US regulates its tech companies.

      The linked article in this post is from a pretty sketchy biased site, and you’re right that they are using inflammatory language rather than accurate language. I’m no expert, but it sounds FB may have had a point blocking this account. I hate Facebook, but not because of this.
