Philosophy Class #3
...
...
... Before I start this class, I just want to say this.
You've been talking behind my back, haven't you? Talking about mean ol' Mr. Minch.
I have ears all around this school, children. There's nothing, and I mean nothing, that won't get passed me.
Guess you children are at that age where you like to gossip a lot.
I don't blame you... Too much.
But for your own sakes... Stop it.
Let's move onto our next lesson of the day.
Freedom of speech.
Ho, ho, hoh...
This has been a major topic in the history of man.
In those olden days, governments used to pick out which words were right and wrong and send them out into the public.
All those ideas they thought were harmful, they destroyed.
Understandably, of course.
However, especially during the Enlightenment, there were philosophers that disagreed with the way things are run.
Voltaire, especially.
He said, and I quote, "Sir, I disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it,"
Yes, freedom of speech guarantees your right to say absolutely anything.
Say, for example, a student... Let's say Lucas... Says "I hate pigs and I want to slaughter them all,"
There's no problem in him saying it.
Oh, no,no.
But... It's the consequences that people have to watch out for.
So, after he says that, let's say, oh... He gets shot in the head (by a Pig Mask).
You can say what you want to say and nobody can stop you from saying it, but you must accept what happens after you say that.
Many people seem to believe that freedom of speech is something you can just say and get away with.
Nope. Definitely not.
So, remember kids: there is always a consequence for your action, no matter what you do.
They may not be good... Probably not bad...
But a consequence, always.
Remember that. This is very important for your (not as important) life.
Any questions, hm~?
