What freedom do you think is being stepped on? By what possible power?
Nobody is required to agree with anyone nor or they restricted from pushing right back on what anyone choose to spout.
There is no freedom from judgment either.
If one lies down with mangy dogs no one is required to pretend no fleas were picked up in the process and have every right call the fleabag out if they want.
There is no erosion of rights but rather a desire to not own how they were exercised and a weird fetish that demands agreement or silence because everyone that disagrees with them is an evil NPC and the scripting of the game should mute them.
