    All the media outlets want to hear a statement from the accomplices, for instance Trump, but they aren’t talking. The victims would want to talk but aren’t getting the platform they should be getting

      Thanks, that’s a reasonable interpretation. Then not really about the suppression of freedom of speech?

        On the face no, but it is more complicated than that. It is known that the government exerts a ton of influence over media and wealthy people exert a ton of control over the government and also own all the major media outlets. It is definitely a conspiracy at this point to control the narrative.

        If all of these entities were actually independent like they are supposed to be, this wouldn’t be a free speech issue. Unfortunately that is not the world we are living in.
