University free speech requirement

mardi 25 mai 2021 à 02:00

An argument against the UK's proposed university free speech requirement shows real problems, but it also shows that the author (Renton) advocates a lot of censorship.

I disagree politically with Yiannopoulos, and when Renton criticizes things Yiannopoulos said, I agree with the criticism. However, censoring such statements is another matter. In arguing for that, Renton shows little support for freedom of speech.

Naturally, right-wing politicians in power will try to crush dissent. The solutions they propose will tend to be unfair. But that doesn't mean there is no problem.
