This bite is hilarious. Or scary as hell, I dont know.
Vivek & Kirk basically believe free speech is more important than enforcing truth, and they even consider the later as "one of the scariest thing they've heard". They're completely confused between scientific dialectic, which is healthy and is happening between experts, and people having opinions, which in their views, are as valuable as expert's opinions. Like, what the actual fuck?? This is so demagogic.

I mean, they have a point with "who decides misinformation?", but their logical conclusion, which is basically "there's no truth, everybody can have opinions and we have to respect that" is completely flawed.

Freedom of speech is freedom to transact. If you don't understand that then crypto must be a mind fuck

Chaotic "Sufficiently Decentralised" Network Participant

I'm not sure i understand what you mean by that? Wanna expand?

Do you believe that for some matters, truth exist? Like, 1+1=2.
(This is a serious question btw, there are some people who believe it doesn't have fundamental existence.)

Freedom of speech fundamentally relies upon one's own ability to discern truth

To imply this should be controlled by an entity is absolutely ridiculous and goes against what crypto was originally created to stand against

The comparison would be *only* trusting your wallet provider to check for honeypots or scams
