This reminds me of an observation someone made a few months ago, “The problem we have is that one party is dangerous and the other is stupid.”

I’m not sharing this because of the topic or the author’s point of view. Instead, he made a fascinating observation: “How much free speech do we have? It depends on the medium. Maybe the sequence from less to more censored is: 1. Conversation. 2. Email and other private writing. 3. Blog post. 4. Poorly-written book. 5. Article in minor magazine. 6. Well-written book. 7.
