Criminal Law exercise #4 (300 words) (Adr)

Discussion-Mill-Rawls

Answer two of the questions below and also comment on at least one of your classmates’ answers. Clearly number each response (e.g., “1.” and “2.”) so it’s obvious which question you are addressing. Do not combine your responses; if they are not separated, they will be counted as only one answer.

Please, do not submit AI-generated answers. Such submissions will be detected and may result in embarrassment.

1) J.S. Mill argues that liberty should only be limited to prevent harm to others. In today’s world of social media, misinformation can cause real harm—yet restrictions can also limit free expression. Should platforms limit harmful or false posts, or would that violate free speech? How should Mill’s “harm principle” guide our approach to regulating speech on social media platforms today? Support your answer with compelling evidence or examples.

2) John Rawls believed that a fair society should only allow inequality if it helps those who have the least. Looking at issues like wealth, healthcare, or education, do you think our society is fair by Rawls’s standards? Why or why not?

3) During crises like pandemics, governments sometimes restrict personal freedoms for public safety. Do you think it’s ever right to limit personal freedom to protect the community? How might Mill or Rawls see this issue? In your opinion, is it ever morally justified to limit individual liberty for the sake of collective well-being?

The Discussion Board assignments will be used to enhance your peer interactions and learn about different viewpoints on events in politics. Please respect each other’s opinions and communicate accordingly.

Appropriate responses will be detailed, directly answer the posting, and provide evidence (primarily from the readings and lectures) that contain sources of statistics or quotes that are cited.

Your initial response should be 200-450 words, cited in APA or MLA formatting. Posting will take the form of responding to two (2) of your classmates in the thread question with 75-100 words with a maximum number of 3-5 sentences.

The second Discussion Board Assignment will discuss why you believe more young people are moving to identify as an “Independent” in recent public opinion polls. Based upon what has been presented in class about how parties work and how people come to their own political understanding, create a reasoned argument explaining how the two-party system has disappointed young voters? Please support your responses from your textbook readings.
