7:35 pm
then that then flagged social media posts , disfavoured social media posts, disfavoured social media posts, disfavoured social media posts, disfavoured social media posts that they wanted, twitter and facebook to censor. and they reported very high levels of compliance . somewhere levels of compliance. somewhere between 20 and 50% compliance. and what was what was really satisfying about the telegraph reporting yesterday is that it verified that everything that we had found had also occurred in britain . i mean, that's not good britain. i mean, that's not good news. but it had come at a time when people were were suggesting that what we discovered was that what we had discovered was very innocent government flagging of social media posts and not censorship. i think what you see in both countries is very heavy handed pressure by governments on the social media companies to censor these disfavoured views, many of which were among some of the twitter files that were released. there were emails that were- �*7 : there were emails that were showing now— were emails that were showing now rnernereb— were emails that were showing how members of— were emails that were showing how members of the democrat party— how members of the democrat reny wee— how members of the democrat party were flagging certain tweete— party were flagging certain tweete eeytna— party were flagging certain tweets saying, could we deal wbn— tweets saying, could we deal wbn tneee,— tweets saying, could we deal with these, take— tweets saying, could we deal with these, take these down? to be-tne — with these, take these down? to be the republicans were at be fair, the republicans were at it be fair, the republicans were at b ee— be fair, the republicans were at b ee wett. — be fair, the republicans were at

7:37 pm
effort in the united states, in great britain , across the eu, great britain, across the eu, andifs great britain, across the eu, and it's now happening around the world, where there has been significant censorship over the last three years of disfavoured views that were often very accurate, including telling people's personal experiences of an experimental drugs side effect , that one that we might effect, that one that we might think had more benefits than harms. and i certainly took the vaccine myself. but nonetheless , it's been in the public interest to fight for knowing the side effects of drugs over the side effects of drugs over the last several decades to so to see the media just play cheerleader while accepting significant amounts of money, you may know pfizer invested many tens of millions of dollars in advertising, which all those media companies took. and then, of course, they have a direct competitive interest not in not allowing alternative media where in social media they want the advertising money for themselves. so i think there was a lot of reasons why the advertisers , why the mainstream advertisers, why the mainstream

7:44 pm
are, as i mentioned, building a free speech movement around the world. many of the people that you would have thought that would have been on the side of more have actually more free speech have actually been censorship. sadly been demanding censorship. sadly and ironically and so we are coming to london on june 22nd to the 23rd. we're doing an event at 7 pm. on june 22nd with russell brand at at central hall, westminster to really build this movement because really the united states and britain are the heart of the global movement that's existed for hundreds of years to demand greater free speech rights. and we want to see citizens demanding very high first amendment levels of free speech for all of our countries around the world, whether they're in the world, whether they're in the west and english speaking or they're places like india and they're in places like india and turkey, are turkey, which which are also governments censorship governments demanding censorship . ultimately there . so we think ultimately there needs a citizens movement. needs to be a citizens movement. well, sounds very, very well, this sounds very, very important me. i'm glad to important to me. i'm glad to hear important to me. i'm glad to heat y-e— important to me. i'm glad to hear you're coming- important to me. i'm glad to hear you're coming to- i'm glad to hear you're coming to london june— hear you're coming to london june-i— hear you're coming to london june-i thht— hear you're coming to london june i think people should june 22nd. i think people should tethttety— june 22nd. i think people should definitely-along— june 22nd. i think people should definitely along they're definitely go along if they're atte— definitely go along if they're ehtelte— definitely go along if they're ehtelte ee— definitely go along if they're ehtelte ee .— definitely go along if they're able do so . michael able to do so. michael shellenberger, thanks ever so much — shellenberger, thanks ever so much—he- shellenberger, thanks ever so much me. thanks shellenberger, thanks ever so. much—me. thanks so much forjoining me. thanks so

7:50 pm
in that. but also there is this sort of slightly humorous kind of suggestion that in one of the parts of her statement is that kathleen stock's comments are unked kathleen stock's comments are linked to waiting times and genden linked to waiting times and gender, reaffirming surgery or treatment, which is i mean, that's slightly off the hook, but there's a kind of yes, i mean, it seems very histrionic. and, you know, the thing and, you know, theathing about and, you know, the thing about thet— and, you know, the thing about that te— and, you know, the thing about that he she— and, you know, the thing about that is she also— and, you know, the thing about that is she also says that she's ehtt— that is she also says that she's ehtt-hghte— that is she also says that she's anti-rights-kind. anti trans rights in this kind of anti trans rights in this kind et-teetuetty— anti trans rights in this kind of factually wrong of that's factually wrong as wet. — of that's factually wrong as well. _kathleen- of that's factually wrong as well.-kathleen has well. i mean, kathleen stock has tepeetetty— well. i mean, kathleen stock has tepeetetty-thet- repeatedly asserted that the thgettehee— repeatedly asserted that the importance people importance for trans people to have—evetyehei have equal rights as everyone etee— have equal rights as everyone eee-.— have equal rights as everyone etee- ant— have equal rights as everyone etee- ant tt— have equal rights as everyone else... and it kind- have equal rights as everyone else... and it kind of. have equal rights as everyonei else.-. and it kind of gets else. yes. and it kind of gets irritating having constantly irritating having to constantly reiterate that a woman, reiterate that as a woman, because trying to talk because who's trying to talk about spaces? i'm sure about women's spaces? i'm sure it must take off. kathleen stock, who's talking about asked to talk about this all the time. but think you have to kind of but i think you have to kind of take a step back and say, are we meant seriously engage the meant to seriously engage the minute i saw the t shirt, yes. i thought, i'm not going to be seriously this seriously engaging with this person because if you are in actual weaponizing death or actual fact weaponizing death or suicide whatever that suicide or whatever it is that you're suggesting, trans people are of, in order shut are dying of, in order to shut down a speaker, then for me,

7:53 pm
either either you believe or either either you believe it or you don't . yes. and you said, you don't. yes. and as you said, a lot of it isn't based in reality, but the interesting thing about the debate stuff thing about the no debate stuff is response to riza's is that in response to riza's protest , there were of protest, there were lots of people , a lot of irritating people, a lot of irritating academics as it happens, piling in and saying, but this is free speech. come on, you free speech warriors. this is free speech. she should allowed stay she should be allowed to stay there. kathleen can do her there. kathleen stock can do her talk raise stays there. and there. kathleen stock can do her talk know,3ise stays there. and there. kathleen stock can do her talk know, that'says there. and there. kathleen stock can do her talk know, that's that'szre. and there. kathleen stock can do her talk know, that's that's at. and there. kathleen stock can do her talk know, that's that's a free d you know, that's that's a free society which is just ridiculous. i mean, you know, speaking as someone who organises the battle of ideas festival, i how what festival, i know how what happens run an event happens when you run an event and not you know , you're and you're not you know, you're not you're not meant to not allowed you're not meant to be with someone just coming be okay with someone just coming in, the table or on in, sitting on the table or on the floor of you and the floor in front of you and messing your whole event. messing up your whole event. that's not protest. it's a really infantile of looking really infantile way of looking at actually at the what protest actually means. and anyone who has done a stunt like that knows you do it. you go in, you try and make as much, you know, noise, song and dance, moved on dance, and then you get moved on and understand that are dance, and then you get moved on and to understand that are dance, and then you get moved on and to geterstand that are dance, and then you get moved on and to get moved that are dance, and then you get moved on and to get moved onit are dance, and then you get moved on and to get moved on because;
7:54 pm
going to get moved on because the interesting about the the interesting thing about the sort argument sort of this trans argument is that say there is no debate that they say there is no debate and any kind of good protest is actually a debate because what you're meant to doing a you're meant to be doing on a on a on sort successful a on a sort of successful political protest winning political protest is winning people cause . and people to your cause. and unfortunately, a bit unfortunately, i think a bit a bit of extinction bit kind of like extinction rebellion , those kind of rebellion, those kind of protesters. a of these trans protesters. a lot of these trans activists aren't don't want to convince the general public about their point of view. they just want to throw their toys out pram. and that's the out of the pram. and that's the preteen.— out of the pram. and that's the gtehteh. ten-t— out of the pram. and that's the problem, isn't it?— out of the pram. and that's the problem, isn't it? it's- and that's the problem, isn't it? it's one thhg— problem, isn't it? it's one thing protesting against eehethhg— something which i'm sure we wette— something which i'm sure we wewtt—tt-el would both support, but it's ehethet— would both support, but it's another-disrupt- would both support, but it's another disrupt so that another thing to disrupt so that ether— another thing to disrupt so that ether-etet— another thing to disrupt so that other-can't hear. - another thing to disrupt so that other can't hear. you've other people can't hear. you've het— other people can't hear. you've even had protesters punching gehtet— even had protesters punching. gehtet—the gender critical feminists in the tee— gender critical feminists in the thee-get— gender critical feminists in the teee -get them. - gender critical feminists in the face - get them. so l face to try and get them. so teeetthg— face to try and get them. so resorting violence. this resorting to violence. this is a twhtehehtet— resorting to violence. this is a fundamental misunderstanding. whet—heehti what a liberal society is meant to what a liberal society is meant te—we.- what a liberal society is meant te—we. t- what a liberal society is meant te—we. t heehi to be, right? yeah. no, i mean, eeeewtt— to be, right? yeah. no, i mean, eeeewtt ten-t— to be, right? yeah. no, i mean, assault isn't protest, right? hut— assault isn't protest, right? hut then— assault isn't protest, right? hut then-yew- assault isn't protest, right? but then .you _but assault isn't protest, right? i but then .you _but on but then but, you know. but on the other hand, a protest is supposed to be disruptive. i've done lots things myself done lots of things myself throughout career throughout my university career where you went and just where you went in and just obnoxious things. i started clapping really loudly and things like that. but you understood you got understood that you then got moved on. nobody sat in the
