That much is certainly the opinion of the alt right, they constantly say as much, and it's central to the white greivance pulsing at the heart of 2016. It's almost as if racists have figured out what's important to you and grifted the ever living shit out of it by attaching their ideology as a free-rider. What's next, the free speech angle?
When you associate liberals with racists, whom they don't like, because they don't parrot your memes closely enough, then that's bullying-- it's the threat of demonization, and the triggering of an understanding of what that means. And, if it develops politically far enough, it's extremely dangerous. You're about one bad brownie from calling us all bourgeouisie and demanding our heads.
As for free speech, it's not an angle. It's a central principle in a free democratic society. Your version is "free speech, so long as you agree with me completely." That's not even a poor man's free speech-- it's liberal fascism.
If your ideas are strong, let them stand up on their own two feet. Support them with facts, with logic, even with persuasive speech if you like. But don't make a new kind of oppression the answer to an old one. Dogma isn't cool, bro.
