I believe under the first amendment in the US Constitution and section 2 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms in Canada you cannot silence someone’s freedom of speech/expression just because they discussed something you don’t like. This legal claim is bullshit right from the start due to constitutional protections
The Constitution only protects you from the government.
Explain to me then how two US Federal District Judges upheld the first amendment during this entire fiasco with film studios
Are you talking about Burstyn v. Wilson (1952)?
Because that was about the state of New York attempting to censor a film. Not sure what case you're referencing.
