Discourse is never free; in no society. The question is just what kinds of discourse are allowed. Depending on what you care about, different societies will work better or worse for you (or be more free or less free, to adopt the lingo of this declaration). In other words, "freedom" is a subjective quality that depends what an individual cares about.

I wholly disapprove of what you say and will defend to the death your right to say it.

  I suspect that, if it came down to it, you wouldn't. It's easy to wrap yourself in the nobility of someone else's words but you have your limits like everyone else.

    You can suspect whatever you would like. I don't mind. Your comment is rather disrespectful and yet, if someone tried to shut you up, I would proportionately respond. You have a right to your disrespectful speech.
