What did Karl Marx really think of Free Speech, and what does this say about the new censorious Left? Tune in for a reading (by Dane Giraud) of a recent piece penned by Free Speech Union member Daphna Whitmore that lays out the traditional Left-wing case for Free Speech and why Marx would not be "team woke!"
"The woke... view the working class as meek and defenseless, not a force that could change society. This patronizing soft bigotry couldn’t be further from Karl Marx’s view of the unified working class as the agent of change with enormous latent power" fsu.nz/join
