Eugene VolokhGUEST
The platform said, you know, we don't want views that we think are racist or hateful or anti-gay or anti-trans.
Eugene VolokhGUEST
I think to the point where there was a satirical tweet that asserted that a trans general who was a general, admiral, whatever, high-level military officer was declared Times Woman of the Year should have been called Times Man of the Year.
Eugene VolokhGUEST
You know, one might think that that's a bad thing to say, but it's clearly political commentary that was suppressed because of the viewpoint that it expressed.
Eugene VolokhGUEST
The platforms were banning certain views that they thought were wrong, not just, for example, about whether vaccines, how effective vaccines are, but also about things like, I think, the Great Barrington Declaration, which just said, we think that lockdowns are a bad idea.
Aaron BastaniHOST
So a- the idea of any intervention in, in new technologies and the market in the early 2000s, which is when these guys started to take off.
Aaron BastaniHOST
In 2006, Time Magazine said that you were the Person of the Year because of YouTube and Facebook and social media, et cetera.
Aaron BastaniHOST
At that time, it was just completely implausible that states would intervene, uh, in, in the management of these.
Aaron BastaniHOST
Of course, they did intervene in certain ways, but I'm talking about regulation In terms of consumer protections and so on.

Daniela GersonGUEST
So, um, that kept them for those United States.
Daniela GersonGUEST
For those who went to Israel, it was the shifting allegiance as well where initially, and it's similar to the United States, initially Stalin was an ally, right? He was, like, Time Man of the Year twice and, um, and then he became an enemy.
Daniela GersonGUEST
And similarly in Israel, um, you know, s- Stalin w- was a backer of creating a state of Israel, but then when it didn't become a communist satellite state, then they wanted nothing to do with him.
Daniela GersonGUEST
So either they didn't want to hear bad things that had happened, and they didn't want to do it later.
Daniela GersonGUEST
and or i guess not acts but discussion as yeah acts of congress to keep out and there was the there was a displaced persons act that explicitly kept them out and people said they were the worst of the worst they were communists they were spies even though they had been arrested by stalin for being spies for the germans now the us wouldn't let them out because they said they were spies for stalin so um that kept them for those in the united states for those who went to israel It was the shifting allegiance as well, where initially, and it's similar to the United States, initially Stalin was an ally.
Daniela GersonGUEST
It was like Time Man of the Year twice.
Daniela GersonGUEST
And then he became an enemy.
Daniela GersonGUEST
And similarly, in Israel, Stalin was a backer of creating a state of Israel.
Sophie GilbertGUEST
It seemed like rage and fury and righteous fury was this great theme in our culture that might have a kind of revolutionary force, that it might help upend systems and, you know, overturn injustice.
speaker_9SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
