Original Note:
The Civil Rights Act forbids discrimination, not free speech. In some cases, courts have ruled that hate speech constitutes harassment. For example, the EEOC has stated that ridiculing Christian beliefs would likely violate the Act. This is not “a large amount of speech." https://www2.law.ucla.edu/volokh/harass/breadth.htm#29 https://www.eeoc.gov/statutes/title-vii-civil-rights-act-1964
