Re "However, free speech is not an axiomatic right and nor a panacea. It's often qualified with sensitivity to political or religious culture, and free speech does not mean that anyone has the right to hate speech...": circular reasoning, the recent term "hate speech" is the legislative concomitant to today's cancel culture. The counter critique is that hate speech is a newfangled way of recriminalizing blasphemy, heresy, et al. In the US "hate speech" is protected under the 1st Ammendment.
