Free Speech. An achievement we can't afford to lose.

in #freespeech5 years ago

In our times we have seen how attempts have been made to generate equality in all areas, and this is thanks to people using their freedom of expression to show society their voice, their intention and their idea. Every branch of our community has been created by the cry of those who defend it, gender equality has been achieved thanks to freedom of expression, as well as all the achievements that have been made in the general area.

However, there are sites, places, spaces where freedom of expression has been limited to the criteria of those who control the system, such is the case of #WEB2 that has gradually been removing those who do not share the criteria of the founders, it is unfortunate that this happens in a multipolar world, so why the need for globalization, why the attempts to advance the development of communication, everything has been lost, even the principle of social networks.

If you ask me:

What does Free Speech mean to you?

Freedom of expression is a social achievement of those who fought against the constant systems of dictatorship that controlled the nation from decade to decade, kings who took any woman as their wife to possess the power of the kingdom, imperialists wanting to manage the world system through a single political model. Our predecessors fought against all adversity to achieve this right that we enjoy today, however, in some public and private institutions is generating a lot of inconvenience due to the impasses in the information that is handled and that the authorities of these institutions do not tolerate, it is clear that you are headed according to the criteria and criticism of a single actor which does not admit any other form of expression that is not used at its convenience.

Do you believe Free Speech is worth saving? If yes, why do you believe it is important?

Undoubtedly, the balance of society is based on respect for what each person can express, it is important to know that the need to express each being is uncontainable, therefore it is better to let it show in a good way, otherwise it would generate a social chaos that may be difficult to control, but in the case of private social networks, the only option would be to seek another means and make known the democratic practices that apply each network platform, so as to generate a general discontent.

Perhaps there are reasons to control freedom of expression, for example, the vocabulary used, the unsupported accusations among others, which lead to a limitation to continue enjoying this right.

Without further ado, it only remains for me to congratulate @theycallmedan for promoting this initiative with regard to issues in the social sphere,
