I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

This is the cover of the last issue of French satyrical magazine Charlie Hebdo.


Personally, I don't like it. I find it lacks finesse like ALL their covers. But I believe in free speech. When their office went through a terror attack a couple of years ago, many claimed for freedom of speech, and said 'Je suis Charlie'.

If you were for freedom of speech and were Charlie then, you must be for freedim of speech now too. Otherwise, if now you think this is hate speech, you are a hypocrite.

True free speech protects not only what we agree with but that in which we don't. The greatest test of whether we support free speech is whether we can defend that which we violently disagree.
