Lex Fridman Podcast
#377 โ€“ Harvey Silverglate: Freedom of Speech

I think there is no alternative.

#377 โ€“ Harvey Silverglate: Freedom of Speech

I think that turning down donation, because you...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#377 โ€“ Harvey Silverglate: Freedom of Speech

you don't approve of the conduct of the donor is a Pandora's box.

I say, well, if I was a cardiologist and this person had a heart attack on the street and I didn't deliver CPR, I would have my license taken away.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#377 โ€“ Harvey Silverglate: Freedom of Speech

I'm a lawyer.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#377 โ€“ Harvey Silverglate: Freedom of Speech

The only difference between my obligation and the doctor's obligation is the Constitution gives people the right to assistance of counsel.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#377 โ€“ Harvey Silverglate: Freedom of Speech

Lex Fridman Podcast
#377 โ€“ Harvey Silverglate: Freedom of Speech

I have a very high duty to represent unpopular people.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#377 โ€“ Harvey Silverglate: Freedom of Speech

Lex Fridman Podcast
#377 โ€“ Harvey Silverglate: Freedom of Speech

Who's money to take?
