This doesn’t even take a ton of critical thinking effort to know this one-breath thought isn’t logical, but I digress.
Congratulations, someone gave the stage to someone who believes freedom of speech threatens freedom of speech.
In her speech, the Former New Zealand Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, stated that censorship is necessary to protect the freedom of speech, because free speech is a weapon of war.

“Justice Louis D. Brandeis established it in his classic concurring opinion in Whitney v. California (1927), when he wrote:
“If there be time to expose through discussion, the falsehoods and fallacies, to avert the evil by the processes of education, the remedy to be applied is more speech, not enforced silence.”
The counterspeech doctrine posits that the proper response to negative speech is to counter it with positive expression. It derives from the theory that audiences, or recipients of the expression, can weigh for themselves the values of competing ideas and, hopefully, follow the better approach.
The counterspeech doctrine is one of the most important free expression principles in First Amendment jurisprudence.”
