minus-squarekristofflinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·edit-224 days agoHere there are two issues: free speech and the judicial system in Brasil. I’ll reply to the later in a different mail. The freedom of speech is the result of democracy. No democracy, no freedom of speech. It is also inherent part of the democractic process. On the other hand, it is not the only element of a democracy. and it can also be used against these other elements? My question to you: can you use a fundamental freedom, granted to you by the fact you line in a democracy, to attack democracy?
