Thanks for the link. I know you dont want to waste your time, but I challenge anyone else to read through that link and pick any example that would apply to making negative comments about Charlie Kirk. Almost every example in there deals with a dispute or speech directly between the employee regarding their employer or coworkers. Nothing in there indicates a power granted to the government to censor or punish speech regarding individuals outside of the workspace, such as YouTube influencers. Also for clarification, I am concerned about those making negative comments or making jokes about Kirks death having their rights violated. Anyone who is specifically and explicitly endorsing the illegal act of assassinating or murdering someone, would likely not be protected. Although interestingly enough, there is an example in the link where someone did exactly that, regarding making comments about wanting the president to be successfully assassinated, and the court ruled it protected speech because they only said it to a coworker and not the public.
