Free speech is the power to criticize your government without fear of prosecution. It is a basic human right.
It is not about getting away with hurting your neighbor who never caused you any harm. Dignity is a human right.

Do not tolerate hate speech.
There is no (need for a) "freedom to hate".
Be kind to one another. 🧡

The Silence Camus Refused to Domesticate: Hazel Barnes, The Myth of Sisyphus, and the Cost of a Sympathetic Misreading
Hazel Barnes was one of the most careful American readers of French existentialism in the twentieth century. She translated Sartre's Being and Nothingness in 1956, a labor that shaped how generations of American students encountered Continental thought. When she turns to Camus, though, something interesting happens on the page. Her summary of The Myth…

Trump is a boor and a warring maniac bombing a country "back to the stone ages" because why not when you're just trying to keep up with your mentors in Israel and Russia.
But it's not Saturday so I guess no protests in the USA... maybe next month. Because Midterms.

"Trump, on Wednesday, commented that Macron's wife Brigitte "treats him extremely badly”.”
"Macron said these comments were inelegant and unworthy and did not merit a response.”
"On strategic matters, the French president said the Trump administration was constantly giving out contrary signals.”
"There’s too much talk" he said, adding "it’s going off in every direction. But we all need stability, calm, a return to peace. It’s not a show."
"If you want to be serious, you can’t say each day the opposite of what you said the day before."

Scholarship has tended to contrast a transhistorical Hindu hierarchy with egalitarian elements of Muslim, Christian, Buddhist and Sikh thought in South Asia, framing ubiquitous caste-like social forms among the latter traditions as anomalous. Yet careful studies of everyday life in the religio…
