It’s great to see us acknowledged for our dogged commitment to nonpartisan free speech defense, but this is who we’ve always been. And you won't find a group of more principled & talented people than what we have at @TheFIREorg. I could not be prouder of them.

"Free speech makes you safer. Free speech cures violence. Free speech protects the powerless. And even 'bad' people can have good ideas." My talk from April at @TEDTalks 2025 in Vancouver is live!

Rules are enforced by the powerful, yeah? If you make a rule to restrain speech in the name of the powerless, the powerful will be the ones who wield it. It's like having a boat that's taking on water, so you drill a few holes to let the water out.
