Have you been feeling too optimistic about the state of free speech recently? Don’t worry! For AO’s 300th episode (!), Sarah and David wade through some of the latest, most migraine-inducing attempts to stomp, quell, restrict, and penalize free inquiry and expression.
On the docket:

-In Texas, an influencer-slash-journalist brings together right and left in defending free speech against qualified immunity.
-California really, really wants to ban “misinformation…” Now, if only it could figure out how to define it…
-Hamline University’s getting sued… for religious discrimination?
-Reading Hitler’s memoir can get you in trouble at Stanford.
