US laws, hmm.
Wasn't there something about an amendment to their constitution? I believe it might've even been the first? Something about freedom of speech?
Maybe I'm just misremembering, but I could've sworn conservatives kept harping on about it.
The Constitution is silent on the matter of the cutting room floor and Ellison lawnmowers.
It only restricts the Federal government (later extended to state governments IIRC?)
This is one of many reasons Federal government is now partnered with private business.
Did you have the same concerns when Biden's DoJ was colluding with social media to censor narratives they didn't like politically?

You mean "politely asking social media to censor narratives, with the implied force of the federal government if they choose not to comply." Which every administration has done since social media became a thing.

Generally speaking, threats and calls to violence are legal. Only a subset are illegal.
