Freedom of speech/expression/thought

It’s all dead here. Anything remotely taboo gets reported or you get shamed.

An unspoken part of the freedom of speech (no pun intended) is the freedom to choose not to speak.

Throughout my years in grade school, I would always be airing and sharing my thoughts to whomever would care to listen.

So much so, that I've always been called a "chatterbox."

But as I came of age, I became more and more reluctant to air my thoughts, except when it was absolutely relevant or important.

Ever seen the View Askew films? (Clerks, Mallrats, Dogma Chasing Amy, etc)

Well, there's this character played by Kevin Smith known as "Silent Bob."

Aptly named due to his decision not to speak unless it's absolutely relevant or important.
