Town Square
The moon cast its gentle glow upon the town of Satyadāsa. The air was alive with the hum of nighttime activity, drawing you towards the spirited commotion in the distance. As you approached, the rising clamor became discernible—a clash of voices in heated debate.
Navigating through the crowd, you discovered two men standing in the middle of the town square, their faces contorted with anger as they exchanged fervent words. Tension hung thick in the air, the atmosphere charged with conflicting emotions. The crowd, unable to contain their disapproval, attempted to silence one of the men, drowning his voice in a sea of disapproving murmurs.
In a decisive moment, Aevisia, the Monarch, interrupted the feud. A quiet hush settled over the gathered assembly to hear what the Monarch has to say. Addressing the contentious situation, she spoke with unwavering poise,
“Free speech is one of our most coveted rights! Many citizens from other Kingdoms & Queendoms are much less fortunate and do not have this right. If we do not allow people to express challenging thoughts and ideas, it destroys our conflict resolution skills, limits our capacity to understand different perspectives, it removes any chance at achieving agreeable compromises, it creates aggressive tribalistic echo chambers, and overall deteriorates our ability to effectively communicate with one another. You don’t have to agree with what this man is saying, you don’t even have to like what this man is saying, but he absolutely has the right to say it.”
Her words resonated through the night, a declaration of the town’s commitment to principles that transcended personal opinions—a testament to the spirit of tolerance and open discourse that helped define and create balance in the essence of the community.
ABOUT
UPDATE 02/03/25:
The old webring widget is no longer active. I sent an email out weeks ago notifying members of this change – if you didn’t receive it, please check your spam folder. Members who have not yet updated will be removed from the ring loop in order to maintain functionality. I’ll keep unupdated members in the directory here until March, at which point if sites still haven’t been updated to the new webring widget, will be removed from the ring and directory entirely and will have to re-apply to regain membership.
This change is due to a lot of confusion from new members surrounding the old webring system. The new webring system is self hosted, nothing needs to be modified in the code by members anymore. Simply copy/paste the script, notify me via the form below, and that’s it. 🙂 I apologize for the inconvenience of this transition, though, it was a much needed upgrade and will be a much easier system for applicants going forward. Thank you for your patience!
ABOUT:
While the name is pretty self explanatory, this webring is dedicated to everyone who supports free speech. We come from all walks of life and believe everyone deserves a voice, even the unpopular opinions!
By joining, you don’t have to agree with other members’ voices in this ring, you simply just have to respect their right to have a voice. Everyone here is different, but our belief in free speech unites us.
So take a browse through our members, explore, and keep an open mind.
DISCLAIMER:
This is an 18+ ring and some members’ websites may contain NSFW content. Due to this, if you are under the age of 18, it is advised to not interact with this ring. (Checkmarks mean safe for work, X’s means NSFW)
