Having the ability to allow new ideas to emerge and having a government filter to prevent the wrong ideas, are fundamentally in opposition. I look forward to ignoring your paper until The Ministry of Truth approves it's not secrete propaganda, since you did use term "Russian".
- aaron-lebo 9y agoNever suggested that. That you can't suggest that there might be a legit propaganda problem without people assuming you are calling for restrictions on free speech is absurd. I'm very emphatically not about that. There's so many tangents not even responding to my post that I'm sorry to have said anything at all.
- jack9 9y agoNever suggested that. You did. Now you want to argue about the phrasing. > That you can't suggest that there might be a legit propaganda problem What problem? That free speech has an unintended consequences that those in power would not want? That it might result in a society that isn't insularly protected from outside signal? Color me shocked.
