"El mal peculiar de silenciar la expresión de una opinión es que está robando a la raza humana"

John Stuart Mill

Simplified Meaning:

When people aren't allowed to say what they think, it's like stealing from everyone. Imagine a classroom where a teacher silences all students' questions and opinions. The class would miss out on lots of different ideas and discussions that could help everyone learn better. By sharing different viewpoints, people can understand more and find better solutions. If we don't let people speak, we lose all the valuable knowledge and creativity they could bring. So, it's important to let everyone share their thoughts, even if we don't agree with them, because it helps us all grow and improve.
