I think that's a misreading of what is going on, though.

Birdsite and others - including some fediverse instances - are crawling with accounts that coordinate attacks against underrepresented or minority people.

Those accounts organize in public via dogwhistles. So if you come in with those same dogwhistles (e.g. "free speech"), you're off to a bad start. It's a health risk for many people to push through known dogwhistles.
