The TV show host Bill Maher has often argued that people need to be heard, even if it's stuff we don't like. I agree because it's just morally wrong to shut people up and shutting people up can cause a reaction where it's cool to say something. However, what are people really afraid of? Well, I can see that in a war situation, information can lead to death, but politics is not a war usually.
Why must opposing views be silenced?

Putin is so evil guy, I mean you can't say anything and ended up in jail for speaking the truth. people are so brainwashed to their skin. UNless the people speak out high and low he needs to GO GO GO or get shot.
We have no idea what Russia gets up to.
If you really must know then research the following: Marxism, Communism, and Juche Monarchy. Those government systems are built where the people are forced into subjugation and taught and brainwashed that it's a normal way of life and to uphold those laws and traditions. If they protest it they are locked up or killed. It's non negotiable.
Russia has never been a free country. You shoot your mouth off about the government in countries like Russia, China, Chechnya, or North Korea and they'll slap your ass in prison. Worse, they'll make you disappear.
Nations like Russia don't care about your morals or what religion you are. They'll still lock you up or give you the death penalty. It's really that simple, they don't care. They're not America.

They really don't. That's why cancel culture is a problem. Then again try canceling people that find other faucets of media to be productive on. I do agree with how corrupt governments make people who disagree with them wish they had been aborted from birth but in actuality, they don't want any muck put on them when they literally can go unpunished it shows how they don't have a religion.
Morality is not exclusive to religion. It's very subjective based on the people and the country. They come from reason and empathy. The idea that morals come from religion or religious pronouncements is patently absurd. I agree with you that it is more so the governments fault than it is the people in those countries that suffer.

You forgot willpower in that. Based on the subject of the matter if you don't know where you came from or what happens when you die or how the universe is formed and you are given the idea that there is a right and there is a wrong based on the times you live in and who teaches these things to you and you think you have an emotion based on the action without any prior belief and said the government is not by part giving those things to their people or telling them to work for a leader then what are they acting on?
I agree. You make a very valid point. 👍
