I grew up in the US being told that freedom of speech was a virtue, something that our country did very well and I always thought that it was a shared value.
It's very surprising to me to see that change in such a short span, or possibly it was not as popular or widespread as I thought it was growing up and I just never noticed. Is it the internet that has caused this uptick in the number of people who think free speech is a bad idea? Or has it always been like that?
