The sixth value of the eight vaules of freedom.


The sixth value of the eight vaules of freedom.

The sixth value of free expression is called “Promote Tolerance” Here is a definition from The eight valus of free expression It has been argued that freedom of speech, especially through our  practice of extending protection to speech that we find hateful or personally upsetting, teaches us to become more tolerant in other aspects of life — and that a more tolerant society is a better society.

Somewhat counter-intuitive, the First Amendment protects hate speech because society learns valuable lessons from, including why it is hateful and worthy of condemnation. It’s how we spread norms about acceptable behavior.” To explain it more this value is all about that you still have your right of freedom of speech but adds that if it turns into hateful speech we can hear you out so us as a community can see other perspectives.  All of the eight value are verry valuble and help but i like this one because it help me people grow and not be stuck in their box of yes is yes and no is no but you try and go and push beyond that no point and get someone you didn't know was possible.


Out of the eight values this one stands out to me the most because I am a big believer in change and evolution and change is very beneficial not only to you as an individual but as a whole community. This value helps people grow and not only think one way is the right way, and to evolve and to branch out and to see the different way of life of different beliefs and other opinions. An example in current time would be Kanye who is a singer song writer and has become very famous over the years. 


Kanye is a great example of this value because he isn't like other celebrities who shy away from sharing their opinions about sensitive topics. Kanye has very controversial opinions and topics that he liked to share one of them being he stated "I see good things about Hitler." This statement being very controversial instead of getting punished by the government although the popularity definitely went down and he lost followers he still goes to state his opinion.This statement stated back in 2022 and is still a popular name and since then he has still had multiple different contorversal opinions that he has shared.  Kanye voiceing his opion.
