This is not a free speech issue. It would be a free speech issue if the government told Facebook that they had to ban the Proud Boys, but that's not the case. Facebook is a corporation, and can refuse the use of their service to anyone.

They're allowed to say whatever they want, but Zuck doesn't have to let them stand on his soapbox to do so.

Tai, you are conflating free speech with the First Amendment. Easy to do, but we don't value free speech because of the First Amendment.

We have the First Amendment because we value free speech.
