RE: Will Free Speech Survive Now?

in #politics4 months ago (edited)

The reduction of freedom of speech is the reduction of the ability of people to communicate danger signals to their families, friends, and communities. We hear about the threat shouting 'Fire!' in a crowded theater can be in the famous example of why censorship is necessary, but the ability to shout 'Fire!' to the people in a crowded theater that is afire is an existential need humanity has. The threat to free speech we observe in recent years is directly analogous to preventing the people in the burning theater from exiting the theater, because censorship of Hunter's laptop prevented people from electing the opposition of the corrupt Biden family to office. Censoring doctors, nurses, and people speaking out about being harmed by c19 jabs, and the loved ones of the millions that died, prevented people from learning about those harms which would have prevented perhaps billions of people from being subjected to those adverse effects and dying. Silencing critics of Israeli terrorism and slaughter of civilians and children is killing people today, and preventing people from stopping funding of Israeli terrorism and saving people from murderous violence in the future - and that violence is growing and spreading, threatening to become a global war that will kill millions.

The danger of shouting fire in a theater that isn't burning pales beside the danger of being unable to shout fire in a theater that is. Censorship is orders of magnitude more dangerous than free speech, and it is demonstrated that the very people pushing censorship are profiting from terrorism, iatrogenic harm, and corruption of politicians and government in America and across the world.

Thanks!
