Thanks for following up on my suggestions. My view is that we need to radically reconceptualize the entire idea of free speech (given how widely it is misunderstood and abused by people with their own agendas). I am sure I have not succeeding in making myself as clear as I hope someday I can be but I'm working on it! Meanwhile, partly inspired by your question I created this list of my writing on free speech (to be a book someday): https://rrgould.medium.com/list/free-speech-freedom-from-a-leftist-perspective-9fc751d72bd1). If you'd like recommendations for readings not by me, feel free to ask, one piece I recently read which was inspiring is this one: https://reactormag.com/tools-for-thinking-about-censorship/ .
