Now, remember that free speech cannot be prohibited and that no matter where, the right to free speech must be upheld.

This is not true, nor has it ever been true.

Well, I spoke about free countries where free speech is constitutional right and where there are still people who will fight nazis and communists.

Really?  And where might that be?  Name the country that has constitutional free speech with absolutely no limitations.  I dare you.

Somalia. You can say whatever want there with no government interference.

Ha!  Yes, Somalia, that bastion of stable freedoms.

Hardly stable, but it is freedom in the truest sense of the term.  Which is the point, I think.
