Hate speech criminalization is a major limitation on speech. Diversity people are granted special protection by big government so as to prevent their hurt feelings and prevent them from reacting with violence toward a hate speaker. If a Diversity person or a hate speaker react with any form of violence, only the hate speaker is necessarily subject to government prosecution for hate speech. The intent of hate speech criminalization is to chill criticism of Diversity people. Another limitation on speech is free speech zones designated by big government. Outside a free speech zone a speaker is subject to arrest and prosecution.

The US Supreme Court has traditionally interpreted freedom of speech and of the press very broadly, and has usually overturned laws or lower court decisions which might have a "chilling effect" on free speech. The traditional examples of where laws curbing freedom of speech might be allowed are that it is reasonable to prohibit someone from shouting "fire" in a crowded theatre, and that speech that is likely to incite violence is not necessarily protected. (Speech that is likely to incite protest, on the other hand, is protected.)
