Free Speech And Why It Matters - Andrew Doyle - #283

Andrew Doyle is Titania McGrath, a comedian and a writer.

Free speech is one of the core tenants of a modern liberal society, and yet we are seeing restrictions being placed on it across the West. In the UK Hate Speech Laws have been introduced and even America is looking at amending the amendment.

Expect to learn what Andrew thinks about Donald Trump being removed from Twitter, whether cancel culture exists, why Miley Cyrus' genital preference is dangerous, what future humans will think when they look back on this period of history and much more...
