Summary

The right to speak is critically important to allow our civilization not only to thrive but to survive. In part 2 of this compilation, we examine the power of free speech and potential responses to censorship. After a lecture excerpt on the “initial defeat of the hero,” we transition into podcast clips on hate crime laws, the idea behind 'No Safe Spaces,’ and the events that lead Paul Rossi, a NY private school teacher, to take a stand against seminars on "white dominant culture" being taught as gospel. After that, we travel across the pond to speak with Andrew Doyle about the hate crime laws recently passed in the UK Parliament. —Links— Watch the full Paul Rossi episode: https://youtu.be/ysQBegyQP8A & Andrew Doyle episode: https://youtu.be/aoH1g5GYhPw —Chapters— [0:00] Pinocchio, Jiminy Cricket, & the Initial Defeat of the Hero [4:36] Paul Rossi: starting to bother you [10:26] There's no such thing as a conversation [15:19] Losing his job [17:30] Aspects of "white dominant culture" [30:52] "Healing resources" [32:27] A kafkaesque series of meetings [38:59] Conscience as a mirror of the divine [40:52] Andrew Doyle: why hate crime laws in Parliament matter [48:52] Western institutions: power-hungry & tyrannical [56:09] Damage without intent [57:48] Prager & Carolla: The Motivation Behind 'No Safe Spaces' [59:44] Defining far-right vs. far-left #FreeSpeech #WhiteCulture #Conscience #Pinocchio #Parliament
