A major reason I think the 1st amendment is bullshit is that it protects antivaxxer pseudoscience that actively gets people killed and brainwashing misinformation campaigns that result in outright fascism but not, like, sex workers running business without endangering themselves

Replying to @Nymphomachy
There's a few things at work here that I don't think you can pin on the wording of the 1st Amendment itself, like the obscenity exception to the 1st Amendment from Miller v. California or the incentives created by Section 230 of the CDA

Replying to @arthur_affect @Nymphomachy
The "naive" reading of the 1st Amendment held by US libertarians *would* provide a great deal more protection for sex workers than any existing jurisdiction in the world, but for that reason is clearly too radical to exist in any jurisdiction in the world
