A Society That Can't Speak For Itself...

 

A society that can’t speak honestly about the superiority of it's culture can't integrate newcomers. A society that can’t criticize foreign belief systems can’t defend its values. A society that prioritizes not offending over being correct can’t survive.
 
Weak cultures do not remain free. They get reshaped by those who are willing to say what they refuse to say, believe what they refuse to believe, and enforce what they refuse to defend.
