Free Speech - Am I allow to express my opinion !!!

What is Free Speech??

Free speech means having the right to express words without any hesitation or without censorship. It's a right where you can express yourself without any fear. As a citizen or as an individual we are allowed to express own perspective and to give our own ideas but...

Are we allowed to give free speech??

As a citizen, I personally feel that we are not allowed to express everything, like our thoughts, like dislikes because of political factors. In fact, the governments and political leaders who believe in democracy, censor people or don't allow to give free speech because of power or losing power.

Obviously, there are so many reasons why many people don't agree with free speech. Because history says, many people tried to take advantage of free speech, spread hate and negativity and racism. I also don't support hate speech or fake news, as well as religious speech because people just misuse the power in the name of religion.

On social media, I have seen the same, social media is full of censorship which is too much according to me. Youtube censored many things till now and restricted and removed so many accounts because of free speech.

Obviously, there are some new rules like, you are not allowed to talk about politics, religion, and covid19. In fact, Facebook censored a lot of informative videos.

Let me give you an example, 2016 or 2017 there was a terrorist attack in Dhaka, Bangladesh where almost 30 people died including foreigners. That was a pre-planned terrorist attack and they intentionally murdered people. That time government took control over social media to handle the situation. Now we don't talk about that devastating incident.

This is just an example, there are many things which we are not allowed to talk about.

Do you believe Free Speech is worth saving? If yes, why do you believe it is important?

Yes, after understanding the entire consequences and ideas, I still believe free speech is worth saving and should be allowed. Because of free speech, new ideas will be generated, people will be able to judge right or wrong, people will know the truth.

Free speech is important to generate new ideas, to justify right or wrong. It is important for all citizens to understand their legal rights without any fear.

The world is free for everyone and we humans are to express our opinion.

Thanks to @theycallmedan for giving me the chance to write and talk about my own opinion freely.

By the way, this is my first video on the @3speak platform. I guess 3speak believes in free speech so I decided to share my first free speech into this video sharing platform.
