This view conceives of like the rights of a listener, not just the rights of a speaker.

The way that we do things now, we focus a lot on who gets to talk.

Right.

And everyone's talking somehow.

Blah, blah.

Magic happens.

We don't ever talk about the listener.

Like if you're listening to all these people talk, do you have a right to accurate information?

And you see some glimmers of that throughout American history.

You know, you have to present both sides of an issue.

You have to provide facts on these different sides of issues.

We should start from the vantage point of the facts and information you need to participate in democratic deliberation, which could be local, which could be national.

But we're going to focus on information health, not just the right of someone to speak.

The marketplace of ideas has been such a beautiful idea and it served us for about a century.

And maybe it's time to think about what a different theory could look like.

Oh, cool.

Yeah.

No, I don't have it yet.

But I'm working on it.
