Great, so getting kicked off of twitter is a consequence that people have had. This checks out.

> freedom from consequences

is such a meaningless, bloated phrase.

Only consequence of speech should never be more severe than speech.

"Freedom from consequences" is a weak argument used by supporters of autocrats, mobocracies, cancel-culturists, religious bigots wanting to punish blasphemous comments, and so on.

I am mocking the justification that leftist used censorship and deplatforming by using their own bloated phrase.

And thank God we do.

What's the different between freedom of speech with consequences and not having freedom of speech?

Yeah but what Musk means by it is freedom from consequences.

Yes, yes you can.
