True, freedom of speech disappeared during WWl for anyone critical of the war effort.
For example, the Choctaw code talkers (Native Americans that helped in communication so the enemy couldn't decipher what American troops' orders were) were heavily guarded and were ordered to commit suicide should capture be inevitable. Their purpose left them confined.

This statement is true. Freedom of speech disappeared during WW I for anyone critical of the war effort. To preserve war efforts, it is only typical for countries to suppress certain freedoms such as speech. Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
