It forces you to be careful in the way it wants you to be careful. Which is fine, but it makes it a strange beastie for anyone not used to it.

Nor should he be. What he said was most likely “protected” speech.

In Terminiello v. Chicago (1949), the Supreme Court narrowed the scope of what constitutes fighting words. The Court found that words which produce a clear and present danger are unprotected (and are considering fighting words), but words which invite dispute and even cause unrest are protected (and are not considered fighting words).

Let’s say you yell fire in a theater,

Legal. This is no longer the standard for speech limitations.

or threaten the president,

So long as it’s a “true threat” and not hyperbole.

or publish classified national security secrets.

This is legal, so long as you didn’t steal them.

YMMV. Only speaking from my experience. Even a “few days” is better than the 21 shown in the graph.

Meaning non-threatening regular check-ups. Check blood pressure, sugar levels, etc. If I call up saying I have a fever they would typically schedule something that afternoon (if it’s morning) or the next day or two depending on severity - not make me wait 21 days.

Guess you missed the part where the person was talking about seeking a legal result not just shitting on Elon?

I didn’t think these are “sick visits”. I’m in the US and can see my GP within a day if I’m sick, but scheduling a physical will be much further out.
