It makes me wonder if in 40 years, the "Cyborg Generation" or whatever will be talking about how those crusty old millennial ruined the world by not doing XYZ which we all know now we should've.
Sure, if XYZ == "protecting freedom of speech." Not doing so might complete the collapse of the US political process, which precipitates a series of events causing the collapse of civilization.

- beaconstudios 9y agoFree speech isn't about enabling idiots to have their soapbox as an end, it's about them having their soapbox so someone in the audience can rationally destroy their arguments publicly. Oppressing speech means that good ideas might be missing review and bad ideas are certainly missing criticism.
