Episode notes
Free Speech As A Negative Right
- Free speech is a negative right because it requires no one else to provide it and exists by virtue of being human.
- Matt argues positive rights (like guaranteed internet) require others to act and so are qualitatively different.

- Allow almost all speech but use civil law (suits) to handle deceptive speech that causes tangible harm.
- Use association rights and civil remedies rather than broad criminal censorship.

- Dustin and Matt open Matt's YouTube blocked-words list and read absurd entries to illustrate moderation quirks.
- The list contains everything from threats to silly movie quotes, revealing how moderation becomes idiosyncratic.
