Mill goes on to state that an individual with opinions that contrast your own always has a chance of being correct; all arguments contain fragments of the truth, and it is only through discussing the opposing views that the truth will come to the surface, and a mutual agreement can be made(43). Nevertheless, according to Mill, even an incorrect opinion should not, under any circumstances be silenced as doing so goes against the concept of having the liberty to speak freely regarding one’s views. There are, however, certain limitations stated by Mill in regards to his belief that all individuals should have the right to free speech. Mill believes that members of society should be entitled to do as they please, provided that they are not misusing this right through conducting themselves in a bigoted or intolerant manner towards others around them. These attitudes can be exemplified through the obvious dislike for another individual
