Missing those days when post lunch walks by Meta employees could turn into walkouts on issue of the day.

Or maybe the idea was to give those people an incentive to leave on their own, so you don't have to fire them.

Meta is embracing free speech while suppressing it!

That's paid speech. Speaking about Meta at large while being paid by it. However if they leave Meta and then speak about Meta I think that would be free speech.

You miss a very important point. In the U.S. freedom of speech specifically refers to limits that the government can impose on stifling speech. It does not apply to Facebook, Meta, Twitter or any other such platform.

My point stands. Meta is suppressing speech while embracing it. It just happens that the suppression is welcomed by the group whose speech is being embraced.
