When Hurt Feelings Become Violence, Freedom Dies
Every generation faces the same question: Do we still believe in free speech, or have we accepted a version of speech that is controlled and dressed up as freedom? When powerful institutions decide what can be said, when lawsuits are used to scare people into silence, when rules online hide or block unpopular ideas, speech no longer belongs to the people. It becomes property of the system, handed out only to those who serve its goals. Real freedom is not something the government gives us. It is something we already have, and speech is the tool of the free citizen.
