I’m utterly appalled by this talk. Bari Weiss presents herself as a champion of free speech and courage, yet she dismisses valid criticisms and real struggles faced by marginalized communities.
Her stance is self-righteous and tone-deaf. She frames the entire issue as if it’s just about being brave enough to speak unpopular truths, but it’s far more complex than that.
There are real, systemic issues that she glosses over with her oversimplified rhetoric. It’s frustrating to see someone use their platform to push a narrative that ignores the nuances and deep-seated injustices so many people face every day.
It’s easy to call for courage from a place of privilege, but it’s a whole different reality for those who are genuinely oppressed and fighting for their rights. This talk is infuriatingly disconnected from the real struggles on the ground.

Few questions: Is truth one or many, or more precisely, can there be only one truth?
Is it not conservatism – and not liberalism – to believe that there is only one truth?
And, why America should be bothered that non-Western societies have their own `truths’? It is not that people prefer comfort over truth. It is not that USA has preferred to disregard `throwing of paint over masterpieces in museums’; it is rather that time and again USA has been throwing its weight around for serving its economic or geopolitical interests, be it in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Gaza, decimating societies that have held other points of view. This is being questioned, as it should be.
Given that there is one truth only, the American version, isn’t the establishment of truth a process similar to evolution? Should America destroy life that doesn’t meet its standards of `truth/s’, or nurture life to make it healthy?
Finally, is courage mere assertiveness or the amount of pain undergone for `right’ purpose, no matter how that right is defined? What about the likes of Gandhi and Mandela and Chomsky who refused to fight with weapons and demonstrated patience and compassion without losing purpose?

The problem with taking a value like courage is that it can mean different things to different people. A person who is against gay marriage can claim that they are a courageous person because they are speaking up for what they believe are the importance of family values. A person who is gay can claim that they are courageous because of all the prejudice they have faced just for being gay whether it is the hostility shown to them by others or having to go through mental health struggles because of what society puts them through and having the strength to get through them. I don’t know how one objectively measures courage.

I can’t really believe How does the Western media tell lies to Western people? and trying to brainwash them. Please be careful! I repeat again and again, the Western media falsifies the facts and does not tell the truth to its people because of their political interests.

Call me crazy but I don’t think being in favor of murder is boring. I think it’s controversial to say the least. Personal rights above the right of others to live has always struck me as incredibly selfish.
Beyond that it’s an empire in decline, what do you expect?
In addition you opening statements ignore the “silent majority”. You are want the people who oppose you to speak up? Because to the silent majority your boring ideals are NOT justice.
The only way to change the status quo in a democracy is to have superior numbers. And your views simply do not have the numbers right now. You are the vocal minority.
Most people are are silent center right conservatives, what would be considered far right in most first world countries.
The radicalism and scandal you decry is the sign that things ARE changing. You think there can be victory without sacrifice?
Or perhaps you want EVERYONE fighting each other with courage?

Your whole speech reeks of privileged paternalism. The rights you posses where fought for, protested, rioted. What a historically obtuse mindset. As MLK said “The white moderate who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action” and that’s what this speech reminded me of.

this completely avoids the issues that brought us to this point in history. perhaps being in touch with one’s own biases, and having the critical thinking skills to compare ones biases to the status quo, might show the disconnect, but that takes courage.

Why on earth has TED given this person a platform? Where is the Technology, Entertainment or Design? This is pure politics and influence…thinly veiled by TED in this booking. Her fear constantly gets in the way of her compassion and intelligence…and I still don’t understand why she is of relevance to comment? What is her specialism, her expertise? Her public profile baffles me.
