I urge you to support individual rights and civil liberties. Organizations who try to silence and censor writers are the ones who have a real Nazi problem. The historical record is clear on this—censorship is used by the powerful to silence the weak—we’ve seen that everywhere from the Spanish Inquisition to the French Committee for Public Safety to the Soviet gulags and beyond. And today we are seeing censorship regimes weaponized against writers and others all over the world. Journalists, in particular, have a responsibility to defend freedom of expression—which is the lifeblood of their vocation.
