Summary
On an exciting episode of The Charlie Kirk Show, Charlie is joined by an old and long-time friend of the show—the great Dave Rubin, Host of 'The Rubin Report' and founder of the extraordinarily exciting, new online free speech platform for content creators of all stripes: Locals.com.
Dave and Charlie discuss in-depth the ongoing battle against Big Tech tyrants to liberate online speech from the censors who run Silicon Valley. They also tackle the important distinction between libertarianism and conservatism and walk through the their own respective paths towards fighting against the slow creep of totalitarianism as opposed to simply being shepherds of American decline in the name of 'Market Principles' in the classically liberal sense.
If you want to learn more about the exciting things happening every day on Locals, you can head to Locals.com/Member/CharlieKirk to keep up with Charlie and see exclusive behind-the-scenes footage as well as original thoughts, commentary, and ideas from Charlie himself.
