Let’s say you’re a “benevolent dictator” with complete power over legislative and judicial processes. What laws would exist involving speech(public square and private)? What would punishments look like (if any)?

This will just enforce the status quo. For instance, if the current regime is fascist and requires a revolution in order to overthrow, you have effectively outlawed talk of regime change. To be fair, a fascist regime would do that already, but the fact that a fascist regime would do it is another bad sign for your proposed law.
Maybe we could carve out an exemption for “harming others in self-defense”?
The fascist regimes also use free speech to promote their fascist regime.
But yeah, its an idea on social media, not a legal text.
