  • Welcome to the podcast.

  • My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social and today we're going to talk about censorship and we're going to talk about the politics in the United States and first amendment rights,

  • which is the freedom of speech, the freedom of assembly, freedom of the press, right?

  • Isn't that I think that's all captured under our very first amendment if I'm not mistaken.

  • Yep.

  • I just paraphrased it because I don't have it memorized, but it's not very complicated.

  • You have the right to say what you want to say.

  • No one can lock you up for it.

  • But unfortunately, you can get fired for things you say.

  • So what do you think about social,

  • the situation in America where the comedian Jimmy Kimmel just recently got fired or suspended I guess

  • for making jokes about the president and Charlie Kirk I believe yeah yeah that was wild so the context of what he actually said for our students who haven't seen it it was a very mild he was just saying like Basically,

  • his big joke that got him fired was just showing a clip of President Trump where they asked President Trump,

  • hey, how are you holding up after your friend Charlie Kirk passed away?

  • And he said, I'm doing fine.

  • I think you can see there's construction going on here for my new ballroom.

  • He couldn't, he couldn't even, he could even pretend to care about Charlie Kirk for one sentence.

  • Like in mid sentence, he pivoted to the ballroom.

  • talking about construction which is

  • like I mean he can't even he can't even fake his like empathy you know what I mean
