I think it's helpful to consider a pair of somewhat tangential questions:

"Is it a violation of your right to free speech that you can't write
me contract to sell me the brooklyn bridge, as you do not own it, with
impunity?"

"Is it a violation of your right to free speech that I have chosen not
appoint you as my personal spokesperson, authorized to represent me to
the general public?"

Take some time and consider these carefully. I believe it will provide
you with insights on trademarks and free speech.

Cheers.
