Today in class we learned about the eight different forms of free expression. Our favorite form of free expression is Discovery of Truth. Discovery of Truth is the value was first suggested by Milton, who first suggested that when truth and falsehood are allowed to freely grapple, truth will win out. This means that you shouldn't have to have a license to print or publish anything. People should be able to state their opinions without judgement. This expression supports the six clauses of the First Amendment because it protects peoples rights to say whatever they want.
Social Media today is considered a big "marketplace of ideas" because they post what they want on different issues going on in the world. This is a way of free expression and people can learn from each other by expressing their opinions and ideas. By learning from one another we can express our ideas without judgement. Religion is also considered an expression of ideas and goes with the concept of marketplace of ideas because we can have multiple religions without sticking to just one so we can have an expression of them all.
Discovery of Truth is a way where everyone is allowed to express their opinion without criticizing others. We can learn to accept each other and their ideas and beliefs. Social media is a great example of showing each other our stands on certain important issues. The six clauses of the First Amendment are supported by this free expression clause. We are able to express our speech and religion under protection without needing a license.
