UC Davis philosopher and legal scholar Mark Reiff gives new insight into the source of the right to free speech and the limits that this right contains.
Reiff argues that the idea of protecting all forms of speech in a free society regardless of their content is actually illiberal.
Hate speech and disinformation can be used to sow division and hatred and thereby undermine democracy.
Reiff argues that freedom of speech is not an independent, free-standing right, tied to the fundamental principles of liberalism as an afterthought.
He says liberalism doesn’t say you have to tolerate all plans of life.
Reiff: The reasonableness of the plan of life always matters under liberalism.
