I think the point of the 1st amendment is that to distinguish speech is to apply bias - good or bad… the outcome of such action is selecting winners and losers

I think the point of the 1st amendment is that to distinguish speech is to apply bias - good or bad… the outcome of such action is selecting winners and losers and a path to oppression.
- acdha 5y agoThis is a very inaccurate understanding of the first amendment and freedom of speech in general. The first amendment prevents the government from restricting speech – King George cannot have cops quiet you in the town square — but it doesn't say anything about someone having the right to an audience or that anyone has an obligation to promote everyone else's speech — and, of course, if it did, Rogan certainly wouldn't meet that standard since he selects his guests based on what he thinks the audience will like rather than some attempt to present a full spectrum of opinions.
- yessirwhatever 5y ago> since he selects his guests based on what he thinks the audience will like What makes you think he does that? And if so, isn't this exactly the same thing that MSM does?
