Guntario's Bible Stuff - And Other Stuff Too

“Of course we have freedom of speech in Europe and [Musk] is free to express his views but then in the same time when it comes to X, X is having obligations under our Digital Services Act and X is supposed to assess and mitigate the risks they are posing to our electoral processes and to civic discourse,” Virkkunen said.

I often wonder if these people listen to themselves. We have freedom of speech! But... Any time you use the combination of freedom and but together, you don't have freedom. You can't have freedom with limits. Limits on freedom negates the freedom. Over the years, I hear people defend this position, saying that they believe in freedom, but. And they actually believe it. I don't think they think through what they're saying, just as this lady didn't think through what she said above. You either believe in freedom or you don't. She obviously doesn't, but believes she does. What's the wording? Cognitive dissonance.
