Say it were implemented in this world and you could say anything you like (written, spoken, signed whatever) to anyone who can hear/read/see it. What kind of problems could that create and are there any ways to resolve them without limiting that absolute free speech?

Could it even create unsolvable logical errors? E.g an omnipotent god can’t create a stone too heavy for itself to lift. Maybe there are similar things with absolute free speech.

    Things like death threats being legal would be pretty awful. Husband saying “if you leave me I’ll murder you”? Oh well, he’s just exercising his free speech, so it’s not an issue.

    People could defame others, openly call for genocide, plan terrorist attacks etc without consequences. It would be a pretty awful society to live in.
