here is the thing about free speech. it comes with responsibility.

people can say whatever they want to BUT with that comes the responsibility of accepting the consequences.

we are living in a permissive society that does not value personal responsibility.

we don't all need to agree on anything other than agree to listen and try to understand others, particularly those we disagree with.

for example, shitting on a person who has been murdered for their opinion/views is a sin, broadly speaking.

(sin originally means separation [from community/others])

take a look at far left and far right radicalism from a place of neutrality. ignore what is being argued and look at the devices being used in the words in order to create separation (sin).

for example:

"that's JUST YOUR opinion..." It's meant to separate and ostracize. it implies that the person is totally alone.

there's more to this than that and I am going off on a tangent now.

I'll end by saying 'can' does not mean 'should'/and knowing when to stfu is a skill that is developed over time and with reflection including self criticism when we eff it up.

I'll STFU now. 🤙❤️🙏
