Episode notes

Therisers for fair will offer a service similar to what the better business bureau does, where we will follow up with those institutions on behalf of people. We want to make sure that if a corporation or a school is unhappy with what somebody has said, there are protections there. And so i think that's something tha, we should all be really concerned about. The lastic word seems to be increasingly used as a cudgel to silence people who who the majority don't agree with.

Shermer, Weiss, and Bartning discuss: why we need the Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism (FAIR) when we have the ACLU, the SPLC, etc.; Richard Dawkins canceled by the AHA; hate speech as violence; Liberal and Conservative attitudes toward free speech and how they shifted; private vs. public speech; government censorship vs. cancel culture; anti-Semitism on the Left and the Right; QAnon; Israel and the BDS movement (Boycott, Divestments, Sanctions); What happened at The New York Times?; why free speech is foundational to other rights; and why we need to judge people based on the content of their character and not the color of their skin (or any other immutable characteristic).
