Misunderstanding on Free Speech and Property Rights
There is a discrepancy in understanding between activists voicing their disagreement through free speech and the Atlas Network's focus on property rights. While activists argue that their actions are protected under free speech, the Atlas Network emphasizes the importance of respecting property rights. They believe that individuals have the right to express their opinions but should not touch, deface, or destroy property. This principle is crucial for entrepreneurship and the protection of property. As long as protesters do not infringe on property rights, the Atlas Network does not have an issue with their actions.
