Free speech is stifled all the time. It's illegal to shout "Fire!" in a crowded theatre, illegal to call someone the N word,Using the N word in a song != calling someone the N word. Racist abuse is unacceptable and making rap music acceptable for good reasons. Sorry if my analogy triggered angst about how unbearably difficult it is to be a white man.
Rappers and people on the street (of all colours) use the n word at each other all the time, plenty call / use racist names towards white people and aren't call out about it.
There is no such thing as race anyway, just humans. The sooner we stop creating divisions the better.
Freedom of speech extends beyond the right to offend people or conversely, not to not be offended. If someone uses a word that is deemed a problem, is it the word that is the problem or the intent?3 -

All in a book called "Babies learn to crawl before they learn to walk". Every generation is the same. Goes through the same process.1 -
Thrugelmir said:Herd mentality when it comes to investing has been around since the Tulip bulb mania in 1637. Behavioral finance studies have shown that inexperienced investors tend to copy what others are doing. Largely influenced by emotion and instinct, rather than performing their own in depth due diligence.
