It means that only “people” get to speak freely.
Caveat: if you ain’t rich, then you ain’t people. (literary callback to a phrase that Biden said during his last campaign)
Oh, and “speech” = $$$ btw (Citizens United).
Translation: facts be damned, rich people gonna do whatever they want, and the laws will even codify that, despite how that means the literal and precise opposite of what America was first founded upon.
