This is not true, article five allows for freedom of opinion, which is very different.

That is not true. Although it uses a different word on the surface, it really is the same legal concept.
"speech" and "opinion" have very different legal definitions.
I would like to read about the difference in the definitions of "freedom of speech" and "freedom of expressing one's opinion" with consideration of applicable case law. Right now, I don't see any real difference in how this is adjudicated in courts.
