Freedom of expression

Freedom of expression, advocacy of humanist values

While the Constitution upholds the right to express opinions or share information without prior censorship, a range of articles in the Penal Code contain over-broad or vaguely-worded provisions that unduly limit freedom of expression. For example, Article 374 establishes prison terms for anyone who shares songs or writings “contrary to good practices;” article 416 punishes any statement “that causes another individual to be dishonored, discredited, or viewed with contempt;” and article 412 imposes criminal penalties for “falsely accusing someone of a crime that could be investigated by authorities.” Such provisions have been used to intimidate and prosecute those – particularly journalists – who peacefully exercise their right to freedom of expression.

Freedoms of Assembly & Association

Following a visit of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights’ Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Expression in March 2024, the Special Rapporteur noted reports by some civil society organizations that promote the rights of historically discriminated groups that they face legal proceedings which they consider to be aimed at censoring their activities.

Abortion

There are major challenges to reform in the face of social conservatism, including several proposal amendments to the abortion law. One such proposal, submitted by the far-right Partido Republicano, seeks to remove one of the three circumstances in which abortion is permissible: risk to the life of the woman. Another proposal seeks to introduce legal requirements for the pregnant person to review obstetric scans of the fetus prior to the performance of the abortion in the hope that the pregnant person will change their mind.

What deserves a closer look

Which Chile findings should I check before acting?

Rage 2 Rebuild highlights 4 published findings for anger and lost years in Chile. Our selection connects the 4 November 2024 chapter with private anger, public criticism and reclaiming ordinary time. Each quote is separate from our practical question. It identifies something to investigate, not a conclusion about your household.

Family, community and society · Report assessment: Severe Discrimination

The dominant influence of religion in public life undermines the right to equality and/or non-discrimination

This is a published assessment of institutions, not an individual outcome or a current legal determination.

A question to verify: Which part of this assessment applies to the actual decision, and what still needs current local verification?

Family, community and society · Report assessment: Systemic Discrimination

Use of Conscientious Objection clauses resulting in the denial of lawful services to women and LGBTI+ people

The report identifies a service-access or equality issue. A formal option does not by itself establish that a particular person can use it in practice.

A question to verify: What provider, rule and practical barrier apply to the service or opportunity being considered?

Family, community and society · Report assessment: Free and Equal

No religious tribunals of concern, secular groups operate freely, individuals are not persecuted by the state

The finding concerns association or organizing. It does not verify an individual support group, its privacy practices or whether it is active.

A question to verify: Who runs the group now, what information becomes visible, and what rules apply to participation?

Family, community and society · Report assessment: Systemic Discrimination

Discriminatory prominence is given to religious bodies, traditions or leaders

This is a published assessment of institutions, not an individual outcome or a current legal determination.

A question to verify: Which part of this assessment applies to the actual decision, and what still needs current local verification?

Your choices remain yours

What can I do with anger about religion and lost years?

For anger and lost years in Chile, Rage 2 Rebuild suggests this decision: Separate acknowledging the loss from choosing an audience or confrontation. The two starting points below address private anger, public criticism and reclaiming ordinary time. Check consequential facts with appropriate current help; these are reflection prompts, not a certified procedure.

Give the loss a name before choosing a target

What feels taken: education, relationships, time, bodily autonomy, money or trust? A precise loss can suggest a useful next step. A broad argument about everything that happened may leave the most painful part untouched.

Decide what a confrontation would need to accomplish

An explanation, an apology, a changed boundary and a public record are different goals. Consider whether the person or institution you plan to address can provide the thing you want. An unwilling listener may not become accountable because you make the argument more forcefully.

Context, without a prediction

How did religious identity change in Chile?

Rage 2 Rebuild’s Chile table shows 13.6% religiously unaffiliated in 2010 and 30.3% in 2020, using Pew’s all-age population estimates. The seven categories describe religious identity, not how many individuals left religion or experienced harm. Rounded population changes cannot predict acceptance, guilt, safety or a support outcome.

Chile: seven broad religious-identity categories
Identity20102020Change

MuslimLess than 0.1%Less than 0.1%Not calculated

“Other religions” combines traditions that cannot be analyzed separately here. A “less than” input stays an inequality; a change involving it is not calculated. Rounding and demographic processes matter. Nationality does not establish anyone’s beliefs.
