When emotions replace objective arguments—that’s where the discussion has long since died. This thought crossed my mind as I was thinking about the introduction to today’s article. As recently as July—on July 23, 2026, to be exact—an article titled: The Future of Free Speech was published on brownstone.org.
Freedom of speech is an integral aspect of authentic freedom, grounded in the distinctively human capacity to adhere to truth through persuasion rather than imposition. While truth is objective and independent of the knowing subject, it can only be received by the subject freely.
We can contrast this with a thinly grounded notion of freedom as merely a pragmatic expedient to “get along” in a pluralistic society in which we assume that truth is more or less unattainable. In this thin form of liberalism, when it no longer appears the optimal empirical solution to maintain social comity or stability, freedom of speech will be easily abandoned. We have seen this dynamic play out in Western societies in the past decade, where elites now frequently insist that censorship is necessary to “protect democracy” from the populist rabble.

The fight against freedom of speech is not a phenomenon of our time. One need only think of Socrates, who was sentenced to death in 399 B.C. by an Athenian popular court for “blasphemy” and “corrupting the youth.”
Censorship is not merely a ban—it is a technique for erasing the word and thus an attack on the source of culture and the survival of the community. When a word is erased, not only does the text disappear—the possibility for the community to see itself in a different light also vanishes. The alternative disappears. The path disappears. Censorship is an amputation of memory that leaves no wound behind, but rather a void into which a person is born and lives, unaware that something has been taken from them. Source.

Every person on Earth creates their own world, based on experiences, observations, and sometimes even their own reflections. That is why it is sometimes so difficult to reach a consensus among people who live in the same era and in the same world. There are as many such worlds as there are people on our planet—about 8 billion. Censorship, in particular, is the ideal method for shaping these worlds “correctly,” and the most important tool for this is the word.
When the words that describe freedom disappear from your thoughts, you stop thinking about that freedom and become a perfect—because obedient—slave. They are replaced by propaganda slogans such as: “sustainable development,” “the war on terror,” “a vaccine for all problems,” or protecting the climate from human influence. This is not a spontaneous evolution of consciousness. It is a well-planned manipulation, clearly evident in the example of the UN’s 2030 Agenda.
That’s the best proof of how effective censorship is.
