Free speech requires tolerating speech you don't like. But it's worth it. Otherwise you get what the Left is doing, which is censorship and that's about as anti-American as it can get.
Free speech means you can say anything you want without the government interfering. If the speech threatens someone with violence, then that's where it ends. Calling someone the n-word isn't a violent act, it's just calling someone a name.

So calling someone the N word is okay but calling them cisgender is against community guidelines?
I didn't say calling anyone names is "okay." I said it should be protected under free speech. Free speech isnt truly free if the government can just make up their own definition of what they believe free speech is. The founding fathers wrote the constitution and the first amendment dfor a reason.
Like I said, perhaps you should do some research. Banning pornogrphy from children isn't a bad thing. If you choose to read these books as an adult, you're more than welcome to.
Maybe you should do your research. They are banning more than just pornography in libraries. They are needlessly restricting access to well-written books just because a single parent complained. There was even an effort to ban the Bible through this method for goodness sake!
WHEN THE LEFT SAYS THEY'RE FOR FREE SPEECH, THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT SPEECH THEY AGREE WITH; WHEN THE RIGHT SAYS THEY'RE FOR FREE SPEECH, THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT SPEECH THEY DISAGREE WITH
