I remember thinking last year that this was one of the most chilling letters I’d ever read. It treats freedom of speech as merely one factor to be weighed in the balance against “detrimental effects on civic discourse and public security.” And the letter was targeted specifically

The statement is a supportive reply to a tweet discussing a letter from the European Commission about balancing freedom of speech with public security. The original tweet expresses concern over the implications for free speech, and the reply seems to agree with this sentiment.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The reply does not directly cause harm but supports a viewpoint that could be seen as critical of the letter's stance on free speech.
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The reply aligns with promoting understanding and empathy towards concerns about free speech limitations. [+1]
  3. Principle 6:
    I will use my influence for the betterment of society.
    The reply uses influence to support a perspective on a public issue, potentially contributing to societal discourse. [+1]
