[Weekend Watch List] Unde se termină libertatea de exprimare și când începe ura

Libertatea nu este ca infinitul, deși mulți le confundă uneori. Libertatea are limite și ele sunt mereu puse la încercare, așa cum o arată regimurile autoritare și tendințele prezente ale democrației. Limitele ei sunt definite de răul pe care îl poți face celorlalți. Dar unde începe el, când adăugăm exprimarea în ecuație? Când e ofensă, când e abuz? Cât rău poți face prin cuvinte? Care sunt limitele libertății de exprimare și, mai ales, ar trebui ca ele să existe? Cuvintele definesc lumea, o transformă, spun unii. Cuvintele ne provoacă limitele gândirii, spun alții. 

La Weekend Watch List-ul de azi mergem pe firul subțire al controversaților pe val ai momentului: Jordan Peterson și Sam Harris. Ajungem și la Noam Chomsky, Bill Maher și Chrisopher Hitchens.

Free Speech Is Threatened on Campus

Protests have erupted on university campuses across the country. To many, these students are speaking out against racial injustice that has long been manifested in unwelcoming, sometimes hostile environments. But to critics, their demands have gone too far, creating an atmosphere of intolerance for opposing or unpopular points of view. Are the protestors silencing free speech, or are they just trying to be heard? And are the universities responding by defending free speech, or by suppressing it?

Does Free Speech Offend You?

Should offensive speech be banned? Where should we, as a society, draw the line where permitted speech is on one side, and forbidden speech is on the other? Should we even have that line?

Greg Lukianoff, president of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, answers these questions and more.

“The ability to express ourselves freely is fundamental to a free society. This includes the freedom to publish, to satirise, to joke, to criticise, even when that might cause offence to others. Those who wish to silence free speech must never be allowed to prevail”.

“He.” “She.” “They.” Have you ever given a moment’s thought to your everyday use of these pronouns? It has probably never occurred to you that those words could be misused.
