Answer:

Voltaire​

Explanation:

Voltaire was a great defender of individual citizens' freedom. He believed that it was wrong for the state to impose its objectives above the will and choice of citizens, in addition to believing that every citizen had the right to disagree and to complain about controversial actions by the government.
