2013 -NFL fines Brandon Marshall for wearing green cleats to promote mental health awareness
2014- RGIII wore a t-shirt in a post game interview that said "Know Jesus-Know Peace" and they made him take it off.
2015- DeAngelo Williams fined for wearing "Find the Cure" eye black for Breast Cancer Awareness
2016- Dallas Cowboys forbidden from honoring the 5 police officers killed in the line of duty in one night in that city.
2016-NFL threatened to fine players who wanted to wear cleats in remembrance of 9/11

2020- NFL is all about free speech and expression.

All of those things listed between 2012-2016 were all items of rules violations of either A) going to the ground in celebration, or B) violation of uniform policy.

Through collective bargaining and/or rules changes, they have amended or relaxed some of those rules, but there is still enforcement of what is on the books.  None of the things you have listed show a double standard, as those rules on the field after the start of the game and in official post game press conferences are still required to fall within the rules on the books.
