That’s not what the distinction is about. The important thing is whether you want to shut them down because of what opinion they’re expressing, or how they’re expressing it.
Nobody is forcing you to read anyone’s comments on Facebook.
If they’re disturbing you from working, that’s an issue independent from the message they’re expressing, so freedom of expression does not apply.
They do not curate the content that’s posted there. Just because someone wrote something on Facebook does not mean Facebook endorses their opinion, just like sending someone an e-mail does not mean that your e-mail host endorses whatever you sent.
If we don’t believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don’t believe in it at all. —Noam Chomsky

How does writing a comment on Facebook negatively affect anyone’s rights?
Well, at least you’re honest about being against free speech.
