It doesn't mean people have to listen to what you're telling them, and it certainly doesn't mean that if someone doesn't want to hear it you have a duty to say it. Cowards afraid of personal responsibility use this argument.

If any rules at all, particularly ones about no trolling or slurs, bother you than you don't want freedom of speech at all. You want freedom from consequences for your speech. Grow up.
