I agree that letting people say and hear what they want is a net positive, in most cases, but I have some difficulty with it being used as an *axiom*, to which one can refer oneself as absolute truth. |
I'm not in your target group, but my impression is that basically limiting freedom of speech is seen as a slippery slope. On the other hand, people calling for unlimited freedom of speech seem pretty low in numbers.
