Check out our podcast, Out of Frame: Behind the Scenes: / @outofframebts
From new movie releases like JoJo Rabbit to modern classics like Blazing Saddles, The Producers, and Team America: World Police -- and, of course, centuries-old landmark works such as Jonathan Swift’s “A Modest Proposal” -- satire has helped us examine real social and political topics using humor that’s often absurd… and sometimes offensive.
Satire and its cousins like irony allow us to grapple with some of our most dangerous, difficult ideas, and the audio-visual medium of film gives ample opportunity to explore complex, and often uncomfortable, themes. Films like JoJo Rabbit, in which a young German boy has an imaginary friend in the form of a murderous dictator, can employ stinging jokes, ridiculous plots, and farcical characters that address serious issues.
It is, in a word, speech -- and the freedom of speech that allows for satirical novels and boundary-pushing movies is critical to our using creativity to advance the social and political dialogue that improves our world.
And yes, many times that speech can be offensive. It can be inappropriate. It can upset us. But its importance is why we're going to get into the complex and hotly debated subject of freedom of speech… on this episode of Out of Frame.

Here's the thing: I agree with your thesis. However, I don't think Taika's speech was a betrayal of his free-speech beliefs. I think it was more of a commentary on the rise of Neo-Nazis, and the fact that the basic ideas the world agreed upon at the end of the war have, in some parts of the country, been largely lost. Taika is simply expressing many of our fears that history may, in some form, repeat itself, in part because this conversation has been censored. The point of the movie was, in part, to bring to light just how ridiculous Nazi ideas are, and how dangerous they can turn out to be. Ignoring them and making them this cultural taboo gives them a kind of respect that they don't deserve. That's what Taika was saying; we have, by shoving down the Nazi conversation, legitimized it, and without raising the points found in films like Jojo Rabbit, we allow neo-Nazis to march without the backlash that they should receive.
He's not saying we should literally lock up anyone with Nazi beliefs; he's saying we should fight against them culturally. He's saying that we aren't doing enough, not to silence them, but to debunk them, to make fun of them, to prove that what they're doing is dangerous bullshit. We shouldn't be silent bystanders, not with this.
I hope you're right.
And the dude's Jewish also.
Yes, and by keeping films being made involving nazis that will:stop neo-nazis.
Got it.
@@SuperOmnicronsj44 Every ww2 movie involves Nazis. You prefer silencing people as a solution? When does it stop. Those neo nazis might take control and use legislation against you. You must make a world where everyone is content and prosperous. We can't solve the issues plaguing our world with hate, and vitrol. We must make a prosperous world. Crime and hate is caused by income disparity, and lack of control over ones life. We can't let it take root. Banning movies cause they have nazis does nothing. The CCP is currently genociding people. But, there is more backlash against nazis then them. What does that say? The same people in 1930's didn't call out their behavior because money was being made. No one is cancelling apply, samsung, or any other big corporation that willingly allows this.
@@FEEonline just as you say that free speech is legal and a good thing, people who critisise you also have to do it, so here I go
So first regardless of your personal feelings or opinions on socialism (which i already by watching the video know you are not in favor of it and Even call it a dictatorship), Nazi Germany isn't socialism, it's imperialism and even if they call themselves socialists that doesn't mean they are, north Korea is called "people's democratic republic off Korea" and we both know they aren't democratic, and the reason they aren't socialists is because socialism is supposed to be about equality and for people to earn a similar amount off Money (whether the Sistem is good or manages to do that is irrelevant as even if it doesn't manage to do it the Nazi weren't trying to achieve what socialists were), the Nazi only cared for white people which they considered German they didn't care about money equality at all, so they we'rent socialists
Now as I've pointed out you seem to believe all socialism is dictatorship but regardless of your personal opinion on the matter this is factually incorrect, as socialism isn't a government system but an economical one which means that you could have socialism with dictatorship but also with democracy, and that is also true off capitalism as it is also an economical system and not a political one, like for example, china is capitalistic yet has a dictatorship where free speech isn't allowed, they are capitalists because they trade with money and use a system where the companies are free to do whatever they want, and there's also socialism which isn't from dictatorship like the one on countries like Bolivia or the one on Norway or Finland (some people might say that Norway or Finland aren't socialists and that's maybe true but Bolivia is still an example off democratic socialism as the president was chosen by vote)
And yeah there can be democratic capitalism and non democratic socialism (often called stalinism or communism) so if you really want to warn people about dictatorship then just say dictatorship and not capitalism or socialism cause they don't have to do with the people on the government
Free speech is great, it allows people to say horrible things, and then let other people criticise them for saying that.
Sometimes the people who criticise never show up and their assholery continues unchecked
Yet Antifa and BLM is supported by all governments and big companies. It's sickening to see people who spread hate and lies be accepted and controlled by the establishment.
Ryan 8191 Yeah, that’s what you gotta pay for free speech.
@@Ryan-wu1oi the us government showing it's support by calling you a terrorist...yeah nevermind that sounds about right.
@@Ryan-wu1oi Are you saying the BLM and Antifa are supported by government and corporations? What a horrendously bad take.
Corporations only released BLM support to get more money from BLM sympathizers. Capitalism has no morals. They'll support anything as long as they make money.
Antifa isn't even an organization. It's an ideology and has no centralized leadership so how can that even be supported by any government? It's like saying governments support democracy. It's implicit. When governments become anti antifa that's the time to be scared.
If you are anti antifa then you're pro fascist. Simple.
Germany released a movie a while ago called "He's back." or "Er ist wieder da" It's about what if Hitler would be resurrected in our modern world and it's a comedy. He notices the peaceful times we live in and wants to incite the fires of war anew. But people think he's just a really good imitator and then he becomes a TV star xD

Fucking _what?_ I really want to see this.
My grandma is german/Austrian and lived through the war, and even she fell in love and understood this film
Given that it very clearly shows German people who resisted, it shows a lot more nuance than most allied propaganda movies that paint the Germans as a monolith of monstrosity.
@@Justanotherconsumer couldn’t put it better myself
the matter of the fact is, most Germans didn't agree with the Nazis. they just managed to get a lot of Germans on their side with Nationalistic propaganda.

I’m Jewish, I have relatives who were killed in the Holocaust, and I absolutely loved this film. It showed the faults in the Nazi regime, in an understandable format of a drama about a 10 year old boy, that most would be able to understand.
I'm partly Jewish, my great grandfather and grandmother were about half Jewish, I really wish to see this movie. It looks very interesting.

"Free speech is my right to say what you don't want to hear."
George Orwell.
@Peek- At -Ch'you Amazing how well, Orwell, an avowed socialist, understood his own ilk.
@@fearthehoneybadger He died before (1950) he could see the end result of the socialist experiments. 40 million starved to death in China in just four years under Mao. I choose to believe Orwell would have changed his mind after Stalin, Mao and the fall of the USSR (and several more).
@@JensHove He did understand something about the evils of socialism. His books- Animal Farm and 1984 proved that. It's strange that he could still call himself a socialist in light of his realization of his beliefs' totalitarian and murderous nature.
@@fearthehoneybadger Well, you got me on Animal Farm. That's definitely socialism. 1984, I think, is more on the totalitarian end game of collectivism in general. While left- and right wing collectivism may play out differently, they pretty much end up the same nasty way. One of the primary reasons I consider myself a Libertarian.

ayy that's good on your teacher!! this is definitely a must watch movie ^v^
but like. brats getting offended over a satire? there are movies that can indict someone of being racist or whatever, and this is not one of them. they need to learn how to think outside of trying to pick apart what's "problematic" and what's not.
I'd rather focus on the fascism of social justice and critical race theory - make a movie about that, and put a comedy entered around the ridiculousness of that and see how offended people get.
Really? Out of all the movies on WWII, this was the film you thought your class should watch?

free speech isnt saying what you want without being critizised. its saying what you want without being arrested. thats kind of a big difference
This is what people wailing about cancel culture seem to miss.
Free speech doesn't protect anyone from being criticized, it's just there for you to voice out anyone's opinion
@@Justanotherconsumer yeah I hate cancel culture but I realize that it have nothing to do with free speech
@@vibez2806 that's the problem, cancel culture often stamps out free speech. They drown out the voices of people they disagree with in entirety. Someone says something they don't like and now that person is in real physical danger. It creates a fear of voicing your opinion that should never exist in free society. Now don't misunderstand me, racists and bigots should have thier views challenged, however they need to be allowed to have a view for it to be challenged in the first place. If we start allowing these blatantly awful opinions such as those of the Nazi party and the KKK to be full stop stamped out by law or violence and not by genuine debate pulling apart thier worldview, it could open a path to create a deeper and deeper hole where nothing accept the 1 opinion exists and censorship is like that of toltataranism everywhere.
TL:DR, listen to the bigots. They're giving you the ammunition you need to destroy thier opinion just by having it. You don't have to like thier words, but you do have to accept they exist in the world.
@@KomradeDoge
The thing is free speech only have to do with the government so people disagreeing with you ain't stopping free speech. Since the beginning of time if people don't like what you are saying then they can tell you.
Cancel culture don't really have to do with something hitting you. To make sure are you talking about america with being arrested?

fun fact: in the movie Hitler offers jojo cigarettes many times, but hitler was against cigarettes in nazi germany
Huh what does that mean?
varnika chandrasekara basically hitler thinks cigarettes bad but he offers jojo cigarettes
@Nigga Bean He was a massive druggie: morphine and meth ruined his health. It's pointing out the hypocrisy of his words without making him offer class A substances to a child, which would probably get the film an 18 rating massively reducing profits
Nigga Bean obviously not. This movie doesn’t give a shit about making Hitler look worst . The only scene it’s visible the director gave a middle finger was his death, which is exaggerated and ridiculous (and funny ofc).
Given that Hitler is just Jojo’s subconscious- every dilema he has , one side of his thoughts is Hitler- , I’d say it’s just him thinking about doing stuff that adults do for relief , since he tries so hard to act like one and mature for most of the movie. Tbh I just think they didn’t use alcohol as the think Hitler offered cause... well... it’s much more casual and normal for a person to offer a cigar. So in short, it’s Jojo thinking “I should use a cigar/drink wine cause that’s what adults do when they are stresses. Oh, but I am 10, I cant”
@Nigga Bean Smh, what are you on? "the Jewish director wanted to make him look as bad as possible". Are you kidding me? The guy literally committed a genocide and you're worried that a little historical inaccuracy is going to ruin his good image?
A few years back when I was in 10th grade, I had to fight my school district. For years, they used "All Quiet On The Western Front" as one of the books in the curriculum, but in my year they announced that it would not be used because it "was written by a German soldier and humanizes the soldiers on the German side". To which I pointed out that that's exactly the point of reading it. While it is up to schools to decide reading material, but their reasoning was blatantly out of line with their own rules and regulations. (and it's one of my favorite books, which motivated me).
Being able to understand and empathize with people with whom you share little in common and who may even be your enemies is one of the most valuable benefits of reading, and of art in general.
@@FEEonline They don't want to empathize with others because it will cause them to reflect on their own actions and beliefs and discover they have flaws of their own.
I watched both movies. Flags of our Fathers and Stories from Iwo Jima. For me, I liked Stories from Iwo Jima better. So, I can understand what you mean.
Well your school obviously needs a better history teacher because that book isn't even about Nazis it's about World War 1 they weren't even called Nazis back then it was still the German Empire
Schools always talk about treating people the same but then don't read a book because a German made it he is not even a nazi he just talks about how war is bad you would think schools would like that

11:56 "It HUMANISES Hitler" - I'd prefer that over the always grumpy, yelling lunatic that he's portrayed as in nearly every movie.
We must face that it's human to be cruel, and that evil people may be relatable, charming and well mannered 99% of the day. Hitler could never have gotten a nation to worship him if he wasn't in touch with its human elements. One day, you may encounter a monster with the most pleasant demeanor, and you'll be tricked, because media taught you that evil dictators are obvious raving animals. And always grumpy.
Sercil he wasn’t even humanized. He was barely in the movie, and when he was he was seen as stupid or completely comical. Except for the one scene about mojo being a rabbit
Totally agree, but also, that wasn't even Hitler! That was a boy's fantasy of what Hitler was like. The actual man is never portrayed in this movie.
Pol Pot, everybody who knew him said he was a well mannerd and polite guy. He got almost half of the population of Cambodia murdered.
The best part of the movie is “Fack off hitler”
There is a fucked up Soviet Movie called Come and See that ends with the main character shooting a picture of Hitler, and he has visions of a child and infant Hitler with his mother, realizing that Hitler isn’t a demon he’s just a man, who was once an innocent child. And he was a man who committed great evil, just like the boys own soviet partisans have done

Which is hilarious because the first country the Nazis conquered was their own. People forget that not everyone in Germany agreed with them. Many actually actively opposed them. It's just that they were silenced, jailed, sent to concentration camps, and eventually murdered for their opposing views. Ergo, you never hear about them.
@@matthewcastleton2263 and not to mention most of the common soldiers the wehrmach HATED the SS with a passion so much so that near the end of the war they activeley fought against them with americans
Exactly, I think some people forget that Adolph Hitler attacked his own countries (Germany and Austria) to gain power, before he attacked other nations. I can think of a German citizen. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, but he was in no way a Nazi, he hated Nazism. He actively helped Jews and tried to sabotage the Nazis. He was even involved with a plot to assassinate Hitler. Dietrich was arrested and executed for being involved with assassination attempts.
But i guess Austria and Luxembourg are fair game
@@matthewcastleton2263 I'd assume many were just incredibly scared and fearful for what would happen if they opposed.

Even if an idea is so bad no one should hold it, the fact that some do hold bad ideas means they ought to be debated.
@Mr. 8-Bit Doggo It's not so much about convincing the deluded but showing the delusion for what it is that others might not follow. Truth enables us to contend with the full range of complexity that reality brings, even if the whole population deny it, we and those who also seek it will be healthier for the pursuit. And if through debate we influence others to join in that pursuit, then they too can share in the benefit.
People do what they think is the best thing given their perspective and understanding. If someone has a reprehensible view, it is probably due to a reprehensible perspective and understanding. We might be able change that understanding, but remember the leap method for dealing with schizophrenics. It basically states that you can't use facts to change someone's understanding unless they feel like you listen to them, love them, and are working with them to help them. Simply telling someone they are not allowed to say certain things destroys that foundation.

Qwerty very, very slowly. Our socialist Government has some particularities because until 20 years ago, we were free. People had free speech, private property and so on. And Chavez’s dictatorship wasn’t willing to show his true colors one day to the next so we got mass internet when the rest of the world did, we got used to it and now taking it from us is a gambit the government is not going to take. That said, out internet is soooo slow. At home my broadband top speed is 1Mbps and it is luckily stable. Some people got 10Mbps services and it is highly unstable. Some other got no internet from years because the bought from the government internet provider and it is so bad, they never fix anything unless you bribe them hard. And in the last year satellite internet became a fairly common service that do have speeds up to 50Mbps but it is so expensive only companies and rich people can afford it.

You pointed out something very important, it’s the context that matters.

When i was a lad in the 60s, my third grade teacher told us America was special because every one had free speech. When we protested that communists shouldn't, she said in America, EVEN communists, who would destroy the system, even they had the right to speak. I'm guessing they don't teach that anymore.
Joseph McCarthy was cancelling "communists" throughout the 50's though.

Not officially, but all good teachers find a way to work it in one way or another.
I wasn't born in the the 1960s or never went to school during that time. But I was told I do young age that everybody has the right to speak up their mind. But if you're going to speak your mind make sure that you use the correct grammar and don't get violent with it.
Back at the school that I used to go to we would actually have a new could say a debate Club where we would literally disgust ideas and problems and try to peacefully solve it without making one side the complete winner. Come up with a compromise.
Now I don't even see this being taught in schools at all. Instead it's all your white and you're all bad all your different colors you're all good go and attack the white people. Oh what's this Jimmy said a little mean word to you now he's expelled from school and his whole entire life is going to get destroyed and now he's going to get on drugs and drink and get arrested and be concert thrown in jail for the rest of his life because he was kicked out of school for saying one mean word.

Our current methods don't seem to be working. Simple methods never do, as they are not the replacement for a backbone and strong moral structure. We have spent the last sixty years tearing down that structure. And now we scratch our heads and wonder what's going on.
While watching this movie, I felt like it was a non offensive movie disguised as an offensive movie.
That's 100% right
It's really an inoffensive movie disguised as an offensive movie
“Offensive speech” is exactly what the right of “free speech” is intended to protect. There is no need to protect “inoffensive” speech.
Nobody cares about "inoffensive" speech, but the issue is what qualifies as offensive. Most of my life, I've had my very existence treated as more offensive than the nazis my great grandfather beat to death with a shovel. At least in my sphere of existence, satire of obviously wrong people seems to be more protected than the lives of the people the nazis sought to exterminate.
Satire is at risk, but so is genuine expression of mere existence which is how we get shit like the easily-editable lesbian cop troll in Onward(lesbian cop troll is a product of corporate censorship). Every time I see an expression of a marginalized person hit mainstream audiences, I can't help but feel like I have to batten down the hatches for another storm of harassment.
@@AlexMint You COMPLETELY missed the point of my post. I said in my post, “There is no need to protect ‘inoffensive’ speech” (i.e. nobody cares about it) and your first point of rebuttal is to assert agreement with that. Then you go on to say, “the issue is what qualifies as offensive”. This implies you want to stomp out all “offensive speech”…in other words, you want to completely eliminate the *very concept* that ultimately allowed you to be treated as an equal.
That is NOT the issue. The issue is, "should we even HAVE free speech?"
Let me clarify and speak slowly so you don’t miss the point: The concept of “free speech” is SOLELY to protect that speech which is found to be offensive. If you are arguing to end “offensive speech” you are arguing for an end to “free speech” and the implementation of an authoritarian regime to enforce it…under a threat of violence. There are no shades of gray here…it is black and white.
Me denouncing your pathetic victim-hood game isn’t me dismissing your existence. Quite the contrary, by taking issue with your positions, I am ACKNOWLEDGING your existence.
All my life I’ve been told I can’t go to a particular school…I can’t have a particular scholarship…I can’t have a particular job…I can’t get a loan, a government grant, a government contract…all because the color of my skin is wrong or I have the wrong gender. Every time I thought, “their loss, not mine” (i.e. THEY are the victim…not me). But, unlike you, I didn’t whine like a little pansy-ass…I moved on! If I were to whine about it and you were to denounce my whining, that would NOT be you dismissing my existence. It would be you ACKNOWLEDGING my existence. BTW, I am incapable of dismissing your existence. No one is… except you.
I find it ironic that you make the false claim that your “very existence [has been] treated as more offensive that the nazis” (who tortured and murdered 6 million people)…all the while the left is literally calling people who merely disagree with them “Nazis”. The outlandishness of your claim is only surpassed by the sheer stupidity of it.
But, projection and hypocrisy are standard principles of the left.
Now, I don’t give a crap where on the victim-hood hierarchy you fit…I don’t care what combination of gender/sexuality/race/creed/mental disorder describes you. In an expansion of Martin Luther King’s quote, “Judge a man/woman not by gender/sexuality/race/creed/mental disorder, but by the content of the man/woman’s character”.
Let’s take transgenderism. I don’t give a crap if you are transgender (in fact, if you are, I will fight to the *death* to protect your right to speak freely, i.e. say things that offend others like “gender is fluid”). I will also wish you the best in dealing with your mental disorder however you see fit. And if that means mutilating your body to conform to whatever your mind believes/pretends you are, so be it! Where I will draw the line is when you try to use authoritarianism (such as Nazism) to deny science, stomp out free speech, and force innocent people under the threat of violence to conform to a radical ideology and speech codes which are a product of that mental disorder. I will also fight to put an end to the obscene exploitation and abuse of children to perpetuate that radical ideology.
Let me be clear...the transgender movement isn't trying to assert their own rights...they are trying to stomp out the rights of others. I'll make a deal with them...I'll let them pretend/believe whatever they want to about themselves if they stop trying to force me to deny basic biology and live in their imaginary world.
I think the insane whack-job members of the LGBTQIAA+LMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ movement should have their incredibly offensive speech protected. I also believe the insane whack-job members of the Neo-Nazi movement should have their incredibly offensive speech protected. That way people like me can see how insane and whack-job they are and make our own judgments about them. Let the marketplace of ideas work rather than put the decisions of what you can say and cannot say into the hands of a small set of bureaucrats (like Pelosi and Trump). The line is drawn where speech is an incitement of violence.
One final point of clarification. I really don't give a rip how many intersectional ribbons you wear...I really don't give a rip where on the political spectrum you reside...if you are of good character, I will treat you with respect and defend you. If, however, your act like a friggin moron, I will call you out on it. And, if I call you out, it won't be because of your ribbons, it will be because you're a moron.
@@davidvana3730 honestly, i didn't even understand alex's comment, so i couldn't tell if it was an argument or an agreement. it's also weird you made the original comment with 1 account, but responded with a different 1. now on to my clarification (which is what i intended before reading the both of your comments)... some time ago, the court decided that certain words (fighting words) weren't protected under free speech, because their sole point was to get a rise out of someone & were essentially verbal assault. wait hold on, ik some trans chick or whatever riley dennis is said the same thing & misrepresented it to make it more vague than it was, but that's not where i'm going. actually, i was going the opposite way, just to mention that the exact reason for that case in the first place was someone randomly calling some other guy a nazi & then getting his ass kicked for it. that's all, thanks for reading this garbage can of a comment i made
@@davidvana3730 People calling out others for being racist or transphobic IS the marketplace of ideas working. I haven't seen anyone advocate for literal government censorship, I've only seen it used as a strawman of the left.
If you're talking about transgenders when you say "deny basic biology", I think you're confused. This has nothing to do with biology. Sex is biological. Gender refers to cultural/societal norm typically attributed to a sex. Sorry if you want to deny basic definitions.
@@glorious_cashew21 Putting out strawmen and falsely accusing people of being racist and phobic isn't marketplace of ideas. It is stupid people who can't coherently argue their point resorting to ad hominems, and usually engaging in projection and hypocrisy. And YOU are the one that is confused. Sex/gender is biological. FACT: you can't change your sex/gender. You can't change your race. You can't change your age. You can't change your species. People who believe so have a mental disorder or are misinformed. I don't really care that they have a mental disorder, I just don't want them forcing their disorder onto others. It's completely asinine.
So about the algorithm filters:
Yesterday I was browsing guitars on Pinterest, because I wanna have some inspiration for maybe building myself a guitar once, and therefore I typed in "gypsy jazz guitar" because that's how that type of guitar is called, and Pinterest wouldn't let me search for it, because Pinterest bans hatred and such. So yeah, that sucked. I had to find a way around it, just searching for "jazz guitar" and hoping that specific type of guitar would pop up (it has a very specific shape that I wanted to see some pictures of) and then I hoped for the algorithm to find some "similar ideas" that also featured those guitars.

Personally I didn't think the Count Dankula Pug thing was that tasteless of a joke, I mean the joke behind the gag is irony of something as cute as a pug expressing Nazi views, he made that pretty clear.
I had an uncle wounded at D-day. I still thought that Pug was funny as hell.
Nah, it was tasteless. It was quite a poor joke. With the full context it's sort of funny, but only to the intended original audience - his and his then girlfriend friends. The video itself? Boring as shit. His new repertoire (starting around the time he started doing Absolute Mad Lads) is much better, though.
@Kvothe Windrunner It was funny for the first minute, then it got repetitive and boring, like any joke said too many times. Worthy of fast exhale through the nose, maybe a little chuckle.
I can enjoy tasteless and poor quality jokes, while still admitting that they're tasteless and poor quality, but over 2mins of the same 3-5s skit? Nah.
@@rubbers3 And that's the irony part that people actually took it seriously while the rest of us are laughing it off as one of them tik tok shenanigans
I didn't really care for it, but that's really the point -- we are all going to disagree on the definition of "good taste". Mel Brooks' comedy was routinely criticized for pushing the boundaries of good taste, and people like George Carlin and Lenny Bruce crossed that line for most people all the time. But that's perfectly ok in a free society. We all *can* disagree about that kind of thing in a free society and still get along just fine.
JoJo Rabbit blew me away. I didn’t think that the establishment/Hollywood could unwittingly allow that genius Taika Waititi.
There's a big difference between hearing an idea, and agreeing with that idea.
And some people should really learn the difference instead of staying inside their own little bubble. Expose themselves to ridiculous ideas to get an understanding of WHY it's ridiculous.
yes, I WILL get an understanding of WHY it's ridiculous, but what about a kid like Jojo? who just wants to fit in, and the neonazis down the block are being really nice and i'm really impressionable so i hang with them and before you know it, you have charlottoesvile all over again.
freedom of speech is important, but it's also a paradox. If you let hatefull ideas have a platform, those hatefull ideas will remove it for their oposition once they get to power
@@J33zas Without free speech to challenge those ideas and the culture to support it, your hypotherical irl Jojo would never be allowed to explore other worldviews. He would be stuck with his clan without recourse due to authoritarian control. But if free speech and the culture of exploring new ideas and concepts exists, by others exposing truth and lies through different perspectives your Jojo has a chance to choose how he'll live his life by being exposed to better ways of thinking and living.
As a recent politcal saying goes, "Sunlight is the best disinfectant." Free speech can and does lead to horrible things when a few misuse it, but even worse is limiting thought and expression for everyone.
Yeah and not being so head strong on them being right
You should never look at an idea with your mind already made up that its ridiculous.
@@J33zas You hear an idea and consider what's being said and evaluate it for yourself. You don't blindly accept the idea as being true, especially if you have reason to believe that it isn't, you question it, you try to get the right answers ect.
There's no reason that limiting free speech will make this easier, it actually does the opposite. And that's ignoring the fact that you can't ever fully silence and idea, because anyone can think anything at any given time...
On the subject of tone of voice, there's a very interesting yet seemingly mundane sentence I once was taught:
"I didn't say he stole my wallet."
Add emphasis to any one word in the sentence, and it completely changes the meaning.

@@greenorion6501 Your thumbnail describes the size of your brain. Birdy.
The Holodomor (Ukrainian: Голодомо́р; Голодомо́р в Украї́ні;[a][2] derived from морити голодом, "to kill by starvation")[3][4][5] was a man-made famine in Soviet Ukraine in 1932 and 1933 that killed millions of Ukrainians. It is also known as the Terror-Famine and Famine-Genocide in Ukraine,[6][7][8] and sometimes referred to as the Great Famine[9] or the Ukrainian Genocide of 1932-33.[10] It was part of the wider Soviet famine of 1932-33, which affected the major grain-producing areas of the country. During the Holodomor, millions of inhabitants of Ukraine, the majority of whom were ethnic Ukrainians, died of starvation in a peacetime catastrophe unprecedented in the history of Ukraine.[11] Since 2006, the Holodomor has been recognized by Ukraine[12] and 15 other countries as a genocide of the Ukrainian people carried out by the Soviet government.[13]
Early estimates of the death toll by scholars and government officials varied greatly.[14] According to higher estimates, up to 12 million[15] ethnic Ukrainians were said to have perished as a result of the famine. A U.N. joint statement signed by 25 countries in 2003 declared that 7-10 million perished.[16] Research has since narrowed the estimates to between 3.3[17] and 7.5[18] million. According to the findings of the Court of Appeal of Kiev in 2010, the demographic losses due to the famine amounted to 10 million, with 3.9 million direct famine deaths, and a further 6.1 million birth deficits.[19]
The term Holodomor emphasises the famine's man-made and intentional aspects, such as rejection of outside aid, confiscation of all household foodstuffs, and restriction of population movement. Whether the Holodomor was genocide is still the subject of academic debate, as are the causes of the famine and intentionality of the deaths. Some scholars believe that the famine was planned by Joseph Stalin to eliminate a Ukrainian independence movement.[11][20][21] The loss of life has been compared to that of the Holocaust.[22][23][24][25] However, some historians dispute its characterization as a genocide.[26][27] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor

IF Churchill ever said this..... then he is actually misquoting someone else entirely, the original meaning of the message was the same but had some alternate words, Churchill saw the wisdom in it and appropriated the message for a new audience

"The further society is drifting from the truth, the more those who speak it will be hated."
Why Dr. Fasci needs a security detail.
Posting that in this context implies that there is actual truth going on and not a lot of lies.
That sort of view might be right at times. But it might also be wrong. It's quite a convenient view for someone to take that wants to convince themselves they are right because no one wants to hear them. For example, a neo-nazi could use that logic to decide that the negative reactions they receive is proof they are correct. It's just not good reasoning.
I speak a lot of truth, and sometimes, people even admit I'm right, but I'm still often hated for telling the truth.

@Smoke Tree I think polygamy could help society quite a bit.
@@realemetic1 Polygamy is useful for a country at war, thats how it came to be in the first place. The men go to war and not all of them return, which means there are more females than males. So if a man has for example 3 wives, he can come back from the front line for a month or two, impregnate them and go back to the war and even if he dies, he still possibly created 3 new soldiers. The Ottoman empire for example used this to its full advantage. Why would that help any country today?

Hello and welcome back to a new tutorial on how to offend someone on social media.
Step 1: Type the words exactly as shown: "I have an opinion"
Step 2: Hit post
Step 3: Profit?
This movie offends me.
There’s no jojo references in the movie
I knew I would find one of you here
Nowl Wane the whole movie is a jojo reference , nazi times , the fact that the main character has a stand and is named jojo , etc
Hitler is a literal stan for the kid one could argue.
I'm offended that the second part wasn't a thunder cross split attack.
A man of culture has arrived
So I was living in Germany when the trailer came out for JoJo Rabbit, and I was scared of laughing at it until I saw nearly everyone else in the theatre was laughing at the film so much that it became infectious. Sadly I still haven’t seen it, but I can’t wait to.
Yes, like people were scared of being accused of hiding Jews . See? If everybody else does it, its ok. Hell, some neighbouring countries even did it. This is social consent .. conscience by consensus. This made all the bad things Hitler did "understandable" or "absurd" but still horrible and unconscionable. Only by laughing at it , can we FORGET it. But some cant as it is just as evil, horrifying and detestable now, as it was then. That children are in it, is the truly pathetic part.
"We are germans, that means we can not attack germany!"
The people laughing are the americans who invaded themselves because of travel restrictions
“Because of travel restrictions the Americans started a coups domestically this year.” - The Internet
Or the people laughing because of the restrictions , lockdowns and forced vaccinations. But whose laughing now? Big Pharma all the way to the bank.
@@SuperOmnicronsj44 shut up and don't try to make everything into a stupid argument about how Big Pharma is controlling the world. Yeah obviously they get money because they make products that are needed right now. If there was a world war, weapon companies would make profit.
@@mo-s- nah, big Pharma is controlling the world because i said so. if you disagree i will cancel you! >:(
@@guadobobey5785 Oh no, he is right :O
I'm 32 years old and have watched the world change a lot from when I was a kid to now. One thing I noticed is that there used to be this commonly held, distinct separation between adult and non-adult. It was like this shared value that we all assumed certain things are for adults, and you have to be an adult to be able to process and handle whatever was in that content. If something had the Parental Advisory CD label or was a M-rated video game, it was really common for parents to not buy it for you. Everyone had that one friend who's parents didnt know or didnt care and yeah you listened to Blink-182 at his house and yeah you mighta borrowed his CD to burn a copy on CD-R and label it "Rock Mix 6" but you had to work for it.
Then you crossed that line and became 'adult'. Society saw you as being able to handle things and make up your own mind. It was known that an adult can see something and not have all their values and lives changed/influenced by a piece of media. You're an adult now, we think you're capable of seeing/hearing/reading this.
The odd thing is that it's starting to get blurred so much that people now talk about what society can and can't handle, adults included, the same way they used to talk about what children can and can't handle. There is no longer this understood 'finish line' that you want to get to and cross so you can be one of the club who can handle 'adult' stuff. People will speak casually about what the entire population should have access to or not the same way Tipper Gore spoke about the evil of metal music. At the very least... even Tipper wanted to put 'Advisory' labels on stuff... she was still leaving it up to the parent.... the conversation has drifted towards people openly deeming certain pieces of media acceptable or incapable of being seen by the actual adults.
To be fair, really bad movies offend me too. Films like the Emoji Movie, Transformers: Age of Extinction, the Last Airbender, and the Last Jedi. *_shudder_*
...the rise of skywalker. sorry, you forgot one
@@aurumjust5539 by all means be offended, nothing is going to happen of you beeing offended :D
Obi-Wan, you should be aware that this channel is funded by climate change-denying billionaires.
The Last Jedi is a masterpiece.
Jack Rutledge Goembel false. They have been given grants of about 4-6 million dollars a year from private individuals and institutes, consisting somewhat of fossil-fuel industries. Supporting the free market to solve climate change is not climate change denial, but it makes complete sense for these industries to donate some to this organization, because they are trying to educate people about how the private sector can solve environmental problems. Also, it’s important to make a distinction between a groups or individuals beliefs compared to their donors, because donations and endorsements do not define an actual message.

More often than not, when I encounter people who tell you that certain things shouldn't be debated, it stems from their inability to form cogent arguments to defend their position.
Such as adult child relationships
I can't imagine someone being so smoothed brain as to think just because a symbol they don't like is in a movie, that the movie needs to be canceled without having ever viewed the contents
"Secrecy is the keystone to all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy and censorship. When any government or church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man who has been hoodwinked in this fashion; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, whose mind is free. No, not the rack nor the atomic bomb, not anything. You can't conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him."
-Robert A. Heinlein
This quote sounds vaguely familiar, was it from a specific book?
@@xxscrublordxxx5652 To be honest, I'm not sure. I found it among a list of quotes attributed to the author but I've yet to read his entire body of work. I've only read Starship Troopers, Stranger In A Strange Land, The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, Have Spacesuit-Will Travel and Podkayne of Mars.
I'm also currently reading The Cat Who Walks Through Walls and have started but have not finished reading The Rolling Stones and I Will Fear No Evil.
Also, while trying to look up the specific novel that was the source of the quote I found another applicable one, "The whole principle [of censorship] is wrong. It's like demanding that grown men live on skim milk because the baby can't have steak."
@@xxscrublordxxx5652 I believe it is a quote from the book Revolt in 2100. Ref. news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19153066. It is a great quote.
@@thegeneralist7527 Ah, thanks. I'll have to read that one sometime.
@@NexAngelus405 You're most welcome. Heinlein was one of my favorite science fiction authors when I was a kid. Of course Starship Troopers is a classic. I haven't read the book nor heard of it, but the quote rings true to me.
