A discussion on the state of Journalism and whether it even exists any more. Also predictions for the election.
Discussion of the DOJ anti-trust suit against google, 230 protections, social discourse, and several other topics.
Starts with a quick recap of the VP debates, followed by 2 debates between Mesh and DRush. Debates are over Lockdowns and UBI, one with the 2 minutes format we see in presidential debates, the other with a more long form 5/10/5 style that we are using as a thought exercise. Neither of us have any debate history or topic expertise, so this is more of a thought experiment on the pros/cons of each style.
What was that debate? How in the world are these the 2 people we have chosen to potentially lead the country?
Today we go in to a discussion on what are Offensive Speech, Hate Speech, and Harassment. We go in to the implications as they relates to freedom of speech, and the cultural implication of being able to punish offensive speech.
Usually I timestamp these things, but this episode was a bit all over the place. Lot of politics and in general venting about the current state of things.
