Before the 1990s, Yugoslavia had tough laws criminalizing incitement to national, racial, or religious hate. People were put in jail for telling an ethic joke.

NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
