Ricky Gervais on 60 Minutes Makes a Crystal-Clear Case for Free Speech
He put it perfectly: the great thing about freedom of speech is that I can say what I want, and you can say you're offended, and I get to decide whether I care or not.
Because let's be honest, there's nothing you can say that someone, somewhere won't find offensive.
That's why blasphemy laws are so absurd, they're basically trying to protect an all-powerful deity from having its feelings hurt.
At the end of the day, we should be free to criticise any idea.
Just because you're offended doesn't automatically mean you're right.
Spot on, Ricky. Free speech isn't about never upsetting anyone, it's about the right to speak anyway.

Spamming here with some more ARC Raiders concepts I have done, building this world together with my colleagues was so much fun and I’m so proud of what the game has become at the end <3 excited for what is ahead for us!
@DistantShoreGMS I get it's hard to get bad news when you're so invested in your project, but this is just giving a bad image to your studio and yourself as a leader. Be more resilient and see if there is any truth within those words, then go and improve your game to be the best it can be!

“They tell us to stop eating out and rents $2,000 a month. Oh, save for retirement, and yet you can barely save for next week. Go buy a house, every house is half a million dollars”
“I'm not asking for a handout, man. We're asking for a freaking fair shot at life. Our parents did not work harder than we work right now. They were simply just given a better chance. Their wages covered their lives, their bills, their hobbies, their passions. Our wages barely cover our freaking bills for the month, dude.
No amount of budgeting can ever fix a system designed to keep us down. We're doing the best that we can. And yet it feels like the outcome has already been decided.”
