People somewhere have never liked everything ever spoken by anyone since man formed languages.
What does that have to do with freedom of speech?
Perhaps this comment you've posted could be hung over the entrances to college campuses like

@puck61 Pretty much just what was stated in the question. Some people seem to whine about being suppressed when in truth they just don't want to deal with the effects of what they want to say. I suppose it's a form of oppression in a way, but as you said, "People somewhere have never liked everything ever spoken by anyone since man formed languages." It's just a part of the condition. They seem to have mistaken their political freedom of speech for a kind of fantasy absolute freedom, that has never existed.
