CVS and their deliberate, hostile business practices chased me away years ago when I was unable to stop them from auto-refilling prescriptions I did not need. California finally took action against CVS in 2020 after many years of their carefully engineered abuses.

Good to see the company’s crappy behavior continues unabated and there’s no reason to give them another try.

To be clear, the right of free speech given in the first amendment is the right to express any opinion without fear of repercussions.

Not the case. The 1st Amendment provides freedom of speech without fear of repercussions by the U.S. government. We do not have the right to express any opinion without repercussions from literally any other source.

“Hate speech” is defined and outlawed by countries around the world:

Threatening people based on their religion, race or other attributes is not dissent.
