I have now been told that, as an American, it is almost impossible to explain freedom of speech and why it is important to people from other countries. Considering what's going on in Germany now after a recent 60 Minutes piece on the "German insult police," I have attempted my best in this video to explain why this is such a HUGE problem.

Not only is meaningful dissent made impossible without freedom of speech, enabling all manner of tyranny, but if you don't have freedom of speech, you cannot have freedom of thought, nor true wisdom. Infantilization strikes once again, this time State-induced.

No one can fully evolve their own mind under these circumstances.

This is a follow-up to the last video. I will likely be making 1,000 more videos about this, no, 50,000, no 50 bajillion more videos about this if I have to.

It truly is that important. Maybe one of the most important things, period.

This cannot be the future, nor lead us to anything remotely close to it.
