One of the strongest arguments for free speech is the practical impossibility of knowing which views are and aren't correct.
Another is the fact that pretty much every apparatus ever erected for the enforcement of "correct views" has ultimately been corrupted and abused.

- rayiner 14y agoFree speech entitles you to speak your mind. It doesn't entitle you to be free from dislike and rebuke for the things you say.
- chernevik 14y agoWho says it does? But I myself won't dislike and rebuke people simply for disagreeing with me.
- rayiner 14y agoIt's ridiculous to call "spending millions funding bigotry" as a matter of simple "disagreement."
