" Freedom is the right to tell people what they don't want to hear. " George Orwell

Doe the Freedom of speech give us the right to offend? Do you support the freedom of speech, even if it may offend someone?

How do you deal with topics or speech you find offensive?

What's the difference between free speech and hate speech? Aren't they the same thing but you just find one that doesn't agree with your view?

”In order to think , you need to risk being offensive” Jordan B peterson. Do you agree with him?

NB: we're only talking about speech, not a call for violence/action.

Go.

"Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?" (also expressed as "troublesome priest" or "meddlesome priest") is a quote attributed to HenryII of England preceding the death of Tomas Becket the Archbishop of Canterbury in 1170. While the quote was not expressed as an order, it prompted four knights to travel from Normandy to Canterbury, where they killed Becket. The phrase is commonly used in modern-day contexts to express that a ruler's wish may be interpreted as a command by his or her subordinates.

BTW: Eric Blair was a very wise man.

Don't think so......See post # 4

[4channel]

As I inferred, something that flies above a piece of paper.

Flies way above what post #4 says.

[domino-710]

What piece of paper ???
