Confused by people promoting free speech by being deliberately offensive when you can offend many more people by simply thinking clearly.

If you don't define free speech movement goals carefully, you end up complaining about the free speech of others that inhibits yours.

I'm not as focused on free speech as I am around the "Don't worry, contrarian intellectuals. You'll still have a job on Monday."-movement.

While often tempted, I'm not a free speech absolutist. I'm an anti-utopian w a commitment to keep our world safe from well meaning utopians.

Most of my friends who are free speech absolutists have never run the simulator forward to see the dystopia total free speech would create.

Free speech isn’t a fascinating topic.

At least to me, it’s more like “air hunger”: when you‘re being choked, it’s always super important to you above everything else, even if simple breathing isn’t really something upon which you ever expected to focus your intellectual energy.
