re: The New York Times, a former newspaper, makes an impassioned case against Free Speech

quote:

it’s a mistake to think of free speech as an effective means to accomplish a more just society.”

To the contrary, free speech reinforces and amplifies injustice

How do people with law degrees say something like this?

If I went to the local university and typed in 'first amendment' to the library search, I could go pull an entire cart of books off the shelf in ten minutes and each one would completely disagree with that. I can't even imagine how many state, federal, and scotus cases could be pulled to contradict it as well.

That is pure insanity.
