I was fed up with everyone appending 'p-dophile' to videos of people getting beat up or killed without any evidence and posting it in /h/fight, so I posted this.

Like, 3 out of 30 people realized it was making fun of them and the website, while the rest just went "This Guy No Good Post Bad with P-dophile "

It's the conservative parties who keep violating free expression though.
E.g., an Ontario ag-gag law that prevented certain types of whistleblowling that had part of it struck down over free expression last month (edit: paywall free article).
Or Saskatchewan suspending free expression to pass their pronoun law.
Or with Internet legislation, the article mentions a Liberal bill, but the Conservatives are supporting another one that would require providing your identity to access websites with adult content and censoring websites that don't comply with it. That could in theory at least be used to censor a lot of Internet sites, even reddit.
Won't somebody think of the children?!
Most sane people agree that children should not have the same "rights" as everyone else, since they're too stupid to make decisions for themselves. Maybe not Canadians, though...
I'm a free speech absolutist, so I don't want anybody getting arrested, or facing any other legal trouble, based solely on speech. Excepting, of course shouting "fire" and causing a panic; or direct, specific, threats such as "I intend to assassinate [public figure] on [X date]." Anything less than that should be free and clear. The only fears that people should have for expressing an opinion, no matter how controversial, should be private and interpersonal.
I don't know...that quickly hits the issue we are having with Drag Queens.
They are fully within their rights to dress up and entertain...but they feel very threatened to do so by groups standing outside venues harassing them (and it isn't targeted at an individual but at a group they happen to opt into). Do they still have their freedom of expression if they are concerned for their physical well being if they show up at the event?
I think that only the person who actually assaulted somebody should get charged. By the time that we get to adulthood, we're expected to keep our tempers. I suspect that most people have a strong temptation to strike somebody on a daily basis, I certainly do, but we just don't do it. Assaulting somebody is a crime, if you went to trial and said "he called me an N-word, so I hit him", that's probably not going to convince a judge; it might convince a few jurors to commit Jury Nullification and hang the jury, but that's another matter.
Sorry, I did a bit of a double take reading this. Is it actually your intention that "most people" go through their lives with a strong temptation to indulge in physical violence on a daily basis? That's...remarkable.
Whenever I see a redditor's take I get an uncontrollable urge to

French geopolitician: no one in Biden’s circle believes in Ukraine’s victory
— S p r i n t e r F a c t o r y (@Sprinterfactory) May 2, 2024
Even Ukraine's most ardent supporters in Washington don't believe Kyiv can win. After his visit to the United States, the famous French expert, director of the Institute of International and Strategic… pic.twitter.com/XAgNBrmAea
Biden will push for peace deal before election to tell he stopped this conflict or if he loses the election he will blame Trump for Ukrainian failures. If Biden wins the election than he will just continue push for peace deal and will try to erase it from media
