Like alot of things in the USA, laws are selectively enforced for protect the status quo
America’s first amendment doesn’t grant a total right to free speech. Conspiracy to commit murder is just speech, but is very much illegal, and so is copyright infringement.
Conspiracy actually requires an act towards the plan. It’s not just speech.

And look how that’s working for them: clamping down on pro-Palestinian protests as antisemitism, raids & arrests over calling a politician pimmel.
The 1st Amendment “understands” just fine. You don’t understand and want a thought-police state.
