    It’s hyperbole and she is referring to being forced to think a particular thing. She’s not wrong on the premise. But no one wants to analyze this because thinking and discord are hard.

      She can still think whatever she wants, she just isn’t allowed to call people names they don’t want.

      It is like me calling you “asshole” the whole time, and then proudly announcing that I would rather go to jail than stop calling you asshole.

        She can call people whatever she wants that’s the point. You don’t go to jail for calling me an asshole. Being forced to use speech that counters her actual thoughts is the part she’s willing to go to jail for. You would likely do the same for your own beliefs.
