> Freedom of speech also means the ability to silence speech you don't like.
That's akin to saying the right to physical autonomy means the ability to dominate others. A completely meaningless and self-defeating argument.
It's akin to physical autonomy meaning you can't trespass.

Your example is literally true: in Texas you have the right to kill someone entering your home without permission.
So far from being "meaningless and self-defeating", it's reality.
Just like you can't walk on my property without my permission, you can't speak on my property without my permission, including my website. I decide who speaks and who doesn't there.
It's not hard to understand for most people.
The right to kick someone off of your property is not the right to silence someone's speech, that is utterly ridiculous framing.
