Free speech paradox. You can't have free speech if you let hate speech propagate.
that makes no sense
Yeah I agree paradoxes make no sense.
Just explain how the paradox works instead of gaslighting me
I am not sure what gazlighting mean. I made a mistake I was referring to the paradox of tolerance. I am not good enough in English to be sure to report it correctly. I found a Wikipedia page which may Wikipedia xplain far better than I will ever be able to. Wikipedia paradox of tolerance
Sorry for the delay I was working. I am not sure that I know what gazlighting mean. I made a mistake I am referring to the paradox of tolerance. I can't explain it better than Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
Trying to clean my mess sorry
I am not sure what gazlighting mean. I made a mistake I was referring of the paradox of intolerance. I my my bad English, i am not able to explain it as well as Wikipedia : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
Sorry I don't know what gazlighting is. I made a mistake I was speaking about paradox of tolerance. The following article will resume it far better than I will ever be. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
this has nothing to do with free speech. I assume you're trying to say we can't have free speech if speech against free speech is allowed.
First of all I would like to say this isn't a paradox: a paradox is something that is scientifically proven but still confusing. This "paradox" makes perfect sense when used in the correct context (I will get to this later) and also doesn't have to happen (you can let someone say tolerating [specific group] is bad but still ignore them) so calling this a paradox is misleading
Allowing free speech that is even as outrageous as "all blacks should be murdered" (anyone who says this should be killed due to obvious reasons - I'm using an extreme example) isn't really saying black people shouldn't have free speech. Now, if someone says "blacks don't deserve free speech" then what you are saying does apply although as I said earlier you can just ignore the person saying it (or kill anyone who says it - I wouldn't shed a tear)
Of course as you can guess I'm not for free speech extremism but I do think we should loosen up censorship
You explaining that it is not a paradox actually proved the paradox, damn it’s so easy
no, because only allowing free speech against free speech can lead to people losing free speach
Yeah that’s only in your head
Sorry I can't answer anymore. Don't know why.
