"人類の存在が終末に近づいているこの時期において、民主主義と自由は単に価値ある理想ではなく、生存にとって欠かせないものかもしれません。"
— Noam Chomsky
Simplified Meaning:
In times when humanity faces serious risks that could end our existence, democracy and freedom aren't just nice things to have – they might be crucial for our survival. For example, during a global crisis like a pandemic, freedom allows people to share information openly, while democracy lets everyone have a say in decisions that affect their lives. This way, we can find better solutions and make sure everyone's needs are considered. Without these freedoms, decisions might be made by a few people who don't always know what's best for everyone. By protecting democracy and freedom, we give ourselves a better chance to solve big problems and stay safe.
