Absolutely not! Free speech is:

protected from government restrictions by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, many state constitutions, and state and federal laws.

It does not mean you get to be a platform of hate mongers and a haven for Nazis.

if a society extends tolerance to those who are intolerant, it risks enabling the eventual dominance of intolerance; thereby undermining the very principle of tolerance.

Yes and here is the Canadian:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_expression_in_Canada

“reasonable and can be justified in a free and democratic society" Hate speech (which refers to the advocacy and incitement of genocide or violence against a particular defined racial, ethnic, gender, sexual, religious or other identifiable group)

Nazis are not protected under this one either. See paradox of tolerance.

“Freedom of speech” covers government censorship of criticism about itself. Nothing more.

Freedom of speech does not mean you get to platform Nazis without being called a POS and eventually ending up in the Hague.

Edit: just saw your post about wishing death to all British politicians… yeah they are filth but cut it out with the calls for killing an entire group of people… That’s what Nazis do ffs
