Still is with us rebels. How the hell free speech became counter culture I have no idea, but I’m 90% sure it has to do with almost all media in the USA being run by 6 corporations.
- AnimalMuppet 6y agoReal free speech is always counter cultural. You only need it when you're saying something counter to what the culture thinks. But I'm talking about the speech itself, and you're talking about support for free speech. You'd expect support for free speech to not be counter-cultural. But when what's being expressed is counter-cultural, support for the speech may be somewhat weaker among the culture, at least among those who aren't sticklers for principle.
