Antisthène et Diogène : la morsure cynique du franc-parler

Chez Antisthène puis Diogène, la parrhèsia n’est pas une figure de style mais une manière de vivre : dire vrai contre la cité, au risque du ridicule, de la violence ou de l’exil. Le cynique parle franc parce qu’il a tout sacrifié sauf la vérité de sa vie. #Cyniques #Parrhèsia #Antisthène #Diogène

Banksy mural of judge beating protester scrubbed from London court

"It depicted a protester lying on the ground holding a blood-splattered placard while a judge in a traditional wig and black gown beats him with a gavel. The stencilled spray painting appeared on an exterior wall of the iconic Royal Courts of Justice on Monday."

The Ancient Greeks understood the difference between the freedom to say anything (#parrhesia) and defending a wide equality in sharing ideas for the public good (#isegoria). Edgelords favor the former but their trolling deters speech, being an attack on the latter. To stand up for democracy and an open culture, we must be harsh towards efforts to force speech on others but gentle with any actions that limit anybody's access to others' speech. #fediblockmeta #SocialWeb
