do you think freedom of speech is important, or do you get triggered and want to shut it down?

Short of screaming fire in a crowded public place, freedom of speech is one of the most important aspect of American culture and should be protected above all else.

Freedom of speech is very important. So important that it's very first right guaranteed by the US constitution. Anyone who gets triggered enough to want to take that away should go crawl into a safe space cave and live their lives in blissful ignorance.

That being said I also think it's as much a responsibility as it is a right. Knowingly spreading lies and/or stirring up hate is absolutely wrong and calling people out for doing that is the responsibility of anyone who sees it happening.

*shrug* Just my two cents on it.

It is fundamental to a functioning democracy. I don't have to agree with what the other person is saying and have the right to verbally disagree with them.

There's no such thing as freedom of speech.
