Description

Episode 2 finds me rambling very broadly on the topic of censorship, where I try to put into context the recent actions of social media companies deleting accounts in the wake of the January 6th Storming of the Capitol event in Washington DC. I speak about how such purges are aimed at outsiders, not just people on one side of the political spectrum or the other, and why this concerns me.

While I recognize there are limits to free speech, I'm ultimately someone who feels we must err on the side of free speech and this episode explains why. In addition, you'll get my usual silly digressions because season 2 of the podcast is, after all, all about me rambling next to a river
