Yes you can.
If you're in a bible study group, meeting at a church or in someone's home, and you have certain tenets about what is acceptable to discuss, you can absolutely ban that speech, or even that person for disagreeing with the stated philosophy of the group and violating the rules of the group.
If cons feel they can’t speak freely, they should look deep in themselves to ask why that is. Maybe they should reflect on the fact that their outdated, offensive, racist, smug, annoying, immature views are not considered appropriate or valid anymore. Maybe they should do a restart & start evolving as the rest of the population has done.
In other words, they should go along with the propaganda. People like you seriously scare me.
The first amendment is designed to make sure the government doesn't penalize people who are saying offensive things. That's all it's about. It doesn't mean your neighbor can't retaliate by uninviting you to a barbecue, or your boss can't fire you for being obnoxious.
Exercising one's rights always has consequences. Some good, some bad.
It is also their right to disassociate with those they have an issue.
No, it's proof that people get fired for violating their employer's policies. Happens every day and it's not unique to conservatives/Republicans.
No contradictions here.
I can walk into my office and say "I'm conservative." or "I'm a Republican." and not worry about getting fired. I can't walk into my office and say "**** black people." and not worry about getting fired.
But can you walk in and say **** BLM and not worry about getting fired or harassed? Or even say BLM is a marxist hate group?
Conservatives: Do you self censor in places other than CD? Is free speech gone, like Trump just said? I know I do. I live in bat **** crazy Liberal Land. The people here are nuts. Conservatives are guarded. We used to think we were the only ones but now we put out feelers and connect with each other.
Can you and do you say anything you want outside of CD? Especially interested if you live in a liberal area like I do. We KNOW it's safe to talk in Florida.
The interesting thing is as moderate who lives in the south I cannot bring up liberal points . Down here a lot of people are far right nuts. Neither extreme is good, and you can't solve problems from either side of the spectrum when you are so far to one side.
So, if I, as a Conservative business owner, fire a Liberal employee because I don't like their opinions on abortion, gun control and critical race theory.....
You're A-OK with that?
Yes, because political party affiliation is not a protected class. Political beliefs are not a protected class.
The arrogance of this point of view is off the scale.
You included the terms smug, annoying and immature in that screed, applying them to your opposition.
It's very, very interesting that you did that.
The irony of your post & all the other cons posts is very very ironic.

Correct, I already stated that.

Shrug, it’s not my problem that cons refuse to evolve & start respecting others. I’m curious what agenda you’re referring to though & perhaps you can provide examples, legit of course, of said agenda.
If your opinions are so crazy that you're too embarrassed to share them, whose fault is that?
I am sure Germans were afraid to say they supported Jews, too.
