Freedom of Speech

Freedom to say what you believe is becoming more controversial in the West. Ideas of "trigger warnings" and "safe spaces", while incredibly thoughful, are beginning to pose a threat to free speech. People, especially our generation, need to realise that the only way to protect free speech is to let everyone and anyone have their say- from neo-nazis to weed legalisation advocates. The prevention of certain groups speaking based on their offensiveness cannot be objective, and risks silencing other groups with valuable agendas. While letting hate groups speak will offend parts of society, it is the only way to save free speech.
