Liberty Is Worth the Fight
Many Westerners have forgotten that freedom of speech and personal liberty - far from menacing "micro-aggressions" deserving of sanction - are the surest safety valves for mediating animosities inherent within any society before outright violence is unleashed in their stead.
It is therefore imperative that Westerners not
lose sight of the most important battle already raging - one pitting individual
freedom against total state control. Every other issue should be scrutinized
through this lens. We are, indeed, at an intersection in the history of human
liberty. Even if only a small minority comprehend what is now at risk, those
few would do well to fight for preserving our individual freedoms against those
governments and corporations working diligently to dilute them. Either the
light of liberty is once again rekindled, or it will be extinguished until a
later day.
