RE: Proof of Brain: Freedom of Speech Musings — Sociopathy vs. Making Sense

in Proof of Brain4 years ago

I believe we have some differences in understanding here about what freedoms are. Freedoms are not granted by an authority; one is born with them. The privilege of expressing oneself is derived, in part, from the freedom to think and say what one wishes, but is not, itself, an unlimited freedom. Expression can take many forms, including harmful and dangerous activities, whereas speech is just that: the word, written or spoken. Just how much expression and speech overlap may be unclear; however, where speech ends is not.
