Join Matthew Pauly and constitutional lawyer Leighton Grey as they dive deep into the critical issues surrounding free speech and the dangers of silencing dissenting views. Grey raises a vital question: "If people are muzzled from sharing their views, how will we identify those who truly hold racist or terrorist ideologies?" Drawing on John Stuart Mill’s harm principle, he explains how suppressing speech not only hides lies but also blocks access to truth itself.
This conversation explores the philosophical foundations of truth and lies, the essential role of open dialogue in exposing falsehoods, and the consequences of censorship on society’s ability to discern reality. Perfect for anyone interested in free speech, civil liberties, and the defense of democratic values.
