Marshall, Saagar, Debate the Ivy League free speech / Antisemitism issue. It seems clear that one issue is what speech on campus should be protected under academic freedom, And what speech is non academic. For example a student writing an essay about his or her support for a third intifada would deserve protection under academic freedom, But if that same student was marching through university city chanting about it, that speech should not necessarily be protected by academic freedom. The students marching through the street are providing no forum for discussion or debate, no evidence or argument to even counter. It would be difficult to claim that particular speech is academic in nature.
I'm on a bit of a Russian history reading spree reading now. I'm finishing Collapse by Vladislav M. Zubok about the fall of the USSR, and I plan on reading The New Tsar by Steven Lee Meyers on Putin's rise next. I also just bought The Last Tsar by Edvard Radzinsky about Nicholas II. Do either of you have any recommendations on good books that cover Russian history?
I enjoyed listening to the interview, Any takeaways? I remember Marshall bringing up that Elon buying Twitter was more like a Billionaire buying a newspaper. It made a lot of sense to me and even now with Elon promoting citizen journalism its like he's trying to remove any standard of what a journalist is. With a probable bankruptcy on the account what do you think will happen? I remember Saagar saying that Saudi twitter is vastly different than our own. Would they step in? Side Question for Saagar and the cyber truck, I heard you say you wanted one, you live in DC where it snows and Ices over and the truck has no handles for a door. Got to make sense of that one to me.
