GMAT CLUB Official Explanation
Choice A: No. Democracy is not an explicit issue in the prompt.
Choice B: No. Municipal decision making is not an explicit issue in the prompt.
Choice C: No. Levels of rancor are not an explicit issue in the prompt.
Choice D: No. This is a reversal that would make it seem less likely that free speech policies can actually help to suppress unwanted speech.
Choice E: Yes. That the possibility of another person openly rebutting an unpopular opinion can make an individual reconsider sharing that opinion explains why free speech policies can actually help to suppress unwanted speech.
The correct answer is choice E.
