Free from legal punishment, sure. But I don't think it's inappropriate for a professor to kick out a student who intentionally and repeatedly violates decorum and interrupts the class.

Much context needed

What happened to manners & decorum? Free speech also demands responsibility.

Talking only in generalities and with no further context...you should be able to speak your mind freely when something (on-topic) needs to be said and contributes to the group, edgy or not. If it’s edgy just to entertain or offend with no productive point, then no.

Be able to say everything and instead on freaking out about specific words, let them instead understand the intent behind the words having more impact than the words themselves.

that's populism.

"I'm a good guy. I would never hit a woman. I would NEVER hit a woman. Even if she had a knife. Or... a stutter. That's just not how I do business." Yeah, seems good.

One would hope more edgy

I took a minorotirs class in college back in early 2000s. I was 1 of 3 ppl who were not progressive in the entire class. I heard a lot of offensive things that were permitted b/c it was against whites or America. Irritated me, but glad I knew what ppl really thought.
