Free Speech, Civil War, & the Public Square - Dr. M.S Delay & Dr. A.V. Bendebury, DSPod #244

It's our final solo conversation from the tour and we're breaking
down an issue that we have held different perspectives on for
quite some time: the limits & importance of free speech. In
part, we are responding the documentary "This Place Rules" by
Channel 5 creator, Andrew Callaghan, which tracks the absurdity,
hipocracy, and more than anything, the profiteering surrounding
the buildup to the 2021 invasion of the Capitol in Washington
D.C. Shilo argues that it could have been avoided if dissidents
hadn't had their voices removed from the internet. Nastia isn't
convinced, on account of the power of the incentives backing the
revolt. In the end, we circle around the need for a
de-algorithmatized public forum, which might provide the basis
for an actual democratic republic. Tell us your thoughts in the
