    Well, you don’t have to be a good person, as long as you’re not an asshole. It doesn’t matter what other people think about you. It only matters what you think, and if you are willing to improve on it. I’m trying to better myself by spending more time with my family. There is always something you can do to be a better person, not for someone else, but for you. I’m still rooting for you.

    “I’m fully ok with people I don’t agree with stating their opinions. It’s only when they want to spew hatred and actually do damage with their speech that I don’t like. Free speech is totally fine, but hate speech and slander are not. I don’t like when people that have the same opinion as me spew hate and lies either. Hate and lies have nothing to do with being free. At that point you are trying to restrict other people from being free.”, we also have hate speech restriction laws in Norway. I don’t agree with them, because they are specially carved out exemptions that was meant to protect vulnerable minorities, however they can also be applied to benefit the 1%, and they will. There are probably already examples of this.

    “Hate and lies have nothing to do with being free.”, here you are putting hate and lies in the same boat. I have already expressed a pushback against hate. Lies are nothing new. Lies have been printed in newspapers as fact for many many years. Politicians has been lying ‘since the dawn of time’. The number one source for mis- and dis-information (unintentional and intentional lying) is the government, number two is the legacy media, and far far behind is twitter, facebook, tiktok, youtube, rumble and such.

    Who do you think decides what are lies? The government and the cia (twitterfiles supplied the receipts for this) They censored everything they didn’t like under the guise of “malinformation”.

    “I was the first person censored by the Biden administration. They had to invent a new word called ‘malinformation’… Malinformation is information that is true but is inconvenient to the government!” - RFK jr.

    I’ll finish with a quote: “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” - William Casey, CIA Director 1981-1987
