- rbanffy 6y agoOTOH, free speech is not a right on itself, but a tool for the betterment of society. If speech is used for a purpose opposed to that - to bring on fascism or risking our extinction - then it's natural, and necessary, to react against it.
- pessimizer 6y ago> OTOH, free speech is not a right on itself, but a tool for the betterment of society. This is only true for censors. There is no such thing as a "right in itself," there are things we agree will be rights, and that we choose to guarantee. You choose to not guarantee freedom of speech, and rationalize it as some sort of natural law.
