No. That's not what it means.

Facebook is a private enterprise. It's not the Internet. You want to spout hate on the internet, fine. Get a server and host your pages. Does Facebook have to let you do it on their site? No.

You may have to shout fire in a crowded theater to get arrested, but you can and probably will get kicked out for standing up and screaming about niggers and kikes. That's how civilization works.

Literally a straw man attack. Facebook is a private platform and they can do whatever they want with their business. I was speaking specifically about freedom of expression.
