speech, hate speech and slander? speech, hate speech and slander? And Charlie didn't explain the And Charlie didn't explain the And Charlie didn't explain the difference between those three difference between those three difference between those three categories, but it's worth just pausing categories, but it's worth just pausing categories, but it's worth just pausing for a moment. So there's free speech, for a moment. So there's free speech, for a moment. So there's free speech, which as described is inherent to every which as described is inherent to every which as described is inherent to every person. You have an inherent right. You person. You have an inherent right. You person. You have an inherent right. You were born with this right. You will die were born with this right. You will die were born with this right. You will die with this right. Whether or not it's a with this right. Whether or not it's a with this right. Whether or not it's a bridged, it still exists to say what you bridged, it still exists to say what you bridged, it still exists to say what you think, to express your conscience out think, to express your conscience out think, to express your conscience out loud. There is a category called hate loud. There is a category called hate loud. There is a category called hate speech, which as Charlie just said, speech, which as Charlie just said, speech, which as Charlie just said, effectively means speech the people in effectively means speech the people in effectively means speech the people in charge hate. And there's a third charge hate. And there's a third charge hate. And there's a third category called slander. And that's a category called slander. And that's a category called slander. And that's a legal category. What's the difference legal category. What's the difference legal category. What's the difference between hate speech or ugly speech, between hate speech or ugly speech, between hate speech or ugly speech, speech I don't want to hear, and speech I don't want to hear, and speech I don't want to hear, and slander. Well, it's worth saying the slander. Well, it's worth saying the slander. Well, it's worth saying the difference is slander is by definition difference is slander is by definition difference is slander is by definition untrue. That is the legal definition of untrue. That is the legal definition of untrue. That is the legal definition of slander is factually incorrect. You are slander is factually incorrect. You are slander is factually incorrect. You are lying. You lying about somebody or lying. You lying about somebody or lying. You lying about somebody or something. something. something. Free speech and even this category Free speech and even this category Free speech and even this category called hate speech. Those are true called hate speech. Those are true called hate speech. Those are true things and therefore they cannot be things and therefore they cannot be things and therefore they cannot be abridged ever. Why? abridged ever. Why? abridged ever. Why? Because you have to have the right to Because you have to have the right to Because you have to have the right to tell the truth. And any society that tell the truth. And any society that tell the truth. And any society that doesn't protect that right collapses and doesn't protect that right collapses and doesn't protect that right collapses and is also of course morally stained. On is also of course morally stained. On is also of course morally stained. On what grounds you suppressing something what grounds you suppressing something what grounds you suppressing something that's true? So slander is by definition that's true? So slander is by definition that's true? So slander is by definition a lie, but protected speech is true or a lie, but protected speech is true or a lie, but protected speech is true or it's believed by the person who utters it's believed by the person who utters it's believed by the person who utters it to be true. And that's a meaningful it to be true. And that's a meaningful it to be true. And that's a meaningful distinction as well. I'm not lying. Of distinction as well. I'm not lying. Of distinction as well. I'm not lying. Of course, I've been wrong about a ton of course, I've been wrong about a ton of course, I've been wrong about a ton of things and will be again. But this is my things and will be again. But this is my things and will be again. But this is my sincere belief. I mean it. And that
-
sincere belief. I mean it. And that sincere belief. I mean it. And that includes opinions, but also claims. I includes opinions, but also claims. I includes opinions, but also claims. I believe this is true. believe this is true. believe this is true. And so if you are ruling over people, And so if you are ruling over people, And so if you are ruling over people, which is to say human beings, if you which is to say human beings, if you which is to say human beings, if you consider the people you have care over consider the people you have care over consider the people you have care over or power over to be human beings, then or power over to be human beings, then or power over to be human beings, then by definition, you can never prevent by definition, you can never prevent by definition, you can never prevent their right to say what they think is their right to say what they think is their right to say what they think is true. Of course, because by definition, true. Of course, because by definition, true. Of course, because by definition, if you do that, you are not treating if you do that, you are not treating if you do that, you are not treating them as human beings because you don't them as human beings because you don't them as human beings because you don't consider them human beings. That's how consider them human beings. That's how consider them human beings. That's how you treat a slave. You don't have to you treat a slave. You don't have to you treat a slave. You don't have to listen to what a slave says because he's listen to what a slave says because he's listen to what a slave says because he's not a human being. So in the very same not a human being. So in the very same not a human being. So in the very same way you can tell your dogs to stop way you can tell your dogs to stop way you can tell your dogs to stop barking, you can tell a slave to shut up barking, you can tell a slave to shut up barking, you can tell a slave to shut up because he doesn't have that right because he doesn't have that right because he doesn't have that right because he's not fully human. So anybody because he's not fully human. So anybody because he's not fully human. So anybody in charge who tells you you're not in charge who tells you you're not in charge who tells you you're not allowed to say something that you allowed to say something that you allowed to say something that you believe is true is not treating you as a believe is true is not treating you as a believe is true is not treating you as a human being. He's treating you as a human being. He's treating you as a human being. He's treating you as a slave. That's how he sees you. And you slave. That's how he sees you. And you slave. That's how he sees you. And you should know that because underneath the should know that because underneath the should know that because underneath the impulse to censor other people, and it's impulse to censor other people, and it's impulse to censor other people, and it's always dressed up as something else, always dressed up as something else, always dressed up as something else, concern, protection, concern, protection, concern, protection, but what really underlies it, of course, but what really underlies it, of course, but what really underlies it, of course, is malice and contempt. I hate you. I is malice and contempt. I hate you. I is malice and contempt. I hate you. I don't consider you fully human.
-
don't consider you fully human. don't consider you fully human. Therefore, I'm not going to allow you to Therefore, I'm not going to allow you to Therefore, I'm not going to allow you to speak. That is unmistakably the message speak. That is unmistakably the message speak. That is unmistakably the message of every attempt to censor speech. And of every attempt to censor speech. And of every attempt to censor speech. And as Charlie Kirk said pretty well in the as Charlie Kirk said pretty well in the as Charlie Kirk said pretty well in the clip we just showed you, it is always clip we just showed you, it is always clip we just showed you, it is always employed by the people in charge on employed by the people in charge on employed by the people in charge on their own behalf. In other words, their own behalf. In other words, their own behalf. In other words, censorship is the process of the people censorship is the process of the people censorship is the process of the people in charge telling you you're not allowed in charge telling you you're not allowed in charge telling you you're not allowed to criticize them. And of course, to criticize them. And of course, to criticize them. And of course, they're clever enough almost never to they're clever enough almost never to they're clever enough almost never to say that, though increasingly they are say that, though increasingly they are say that, though increasingly they are saying that, but in general, they don't. saying that, but in general, they don't. saying that, but in general, they don't. And so they dress it up and they say, And so they dress it up and they say, And so they dress it up and they say, "Well, there's some group that's somehow "Well, there's some group that's somehow "Well, there's some group that's somehow powerless and you can't criticize them powerless and you can't criticize them powerless and you can't criticize them because they don't have power and your because they don't have power and your because they don't have power and your criticism of them is cruelty and there's criticism of them is cruelty and there's criticism of them is cruelty and there's a power imbalance and you're punching a power imbalance and you're punching a power imbalance and you're punching down and we're not going to allow that down and we're not going to allow that down and we're not going to allow that on their behalf." on their behalf." on their behalf." Well, whether or not that's actually Well, whether or not that's actually Well, whether or not that's actually true, and we could debate it, the one true, and we could debate it, the one true, and we could debate it, the one thing you can be certain of is the group thing you can be certain of is the group thing you can be certain of is the group they claim to be protecting is just a they claim to be protecting is just a they claim to be protecting is just a proxy for them. proxy for them. proxy for them. It's just a proxy for them. Always It's just a proxy for them. Always It's just a proxy for them. Always attempts at censorship are an attempt to attempts at censorship are an attempt to attempts at censorship are an attempt to protect the people in charge from protect the people in charge from protect the people in charge from criticism. And as famously been noted, criticism. And as famously been noted, criticism. And as famously been noted, if you want to know who is in charge, if you want to know who is in charge, if you want to know who is in charge, ask yourself who you're not allowed to ask yourself who you're not allowed to ask yourself who you're not allowed to criticize.

criticize. criticize. That's just a fact. That's not a slur or That's just a fact. That's not a slur or That's just a fact. That's not a slur or a slander. That is a fact. Because of a slander. That is a fact. Because of a slander. That is a fact. Because of course, you would never affect course, you would never affect course, you would never affect censorship censorship censorship except in defense of your own interests. except in defense of your own interests. except in defense of your own interests. And that is 100% of the time what And that is 100% of the time what And that is 100% of the time what happens. Censorship is used to protect happens. Censorship is used to protect happens. Censorship is used to protect the powerful from criticism to gird and the powerful from criticism to gird and the powerful from criticism to gird and protect their power. Of course, there's protect their power. Of course, there's protect their power. Of course, there's no other reason for it. And because the no other reason for it. And because the no other reason for it. And because the people in charge are usually in every people in charge are usually in every people in charge are usually in every age, no matter who they are, fairly age, no matter who they are, fairly age, no matter who they are, fairly clever and ruthless, that's how they got clever and ruthless, that's how they got clever and ruthless, that's how they got there. They will almost always find some there. They will almost always find some there. They will almost always find some fairly sophisticated way to hide that fairly sophisticated way to hide that fairly sophisticated way to hide that fact. And once again, they will tell you fact. And once again, they will tell you fact. And once again, they will tell you that your criticism of their behavior is that your criticism of their behavior is that your criticism of their behavior is somehow cruelty or out of bounds. But somehow cruelty or out of bounds. But somehow cruelty or out of bounds. But no, what it really is is a threat to no, what it really is is a threat to no, what it really is is a threat to their power, of course. And so Charlie their power, of course. And so Charlie their power, of course. And so Charlie Kirk's prescription is the only Kirk's prescription is the only Kirk's prescription is the only prescription. And he said this prescription. And he said this prescription. And he said this repeatedly, if you don't like speech you repeatedly, if you don't like speech you repeatedly, if you don't like speech you hear, there is only one way. There are hear, there is only one way. There are hear, there is only one way. There are not a myriad ways, there's one way to not a myriad ways, there's one way to not a myriad ways, there's one way to combat that, and it's with more speech.
-
combat that, and it's with more speech. combat that, and it's with more speech. Tell me how I'm wrong. And in fact, he Tell me how I'm wrong. And in fact, he Tell me how I'm wrong. And in fact, he spent the last years of his life touring spent the last years of his life touring spent the last years of his life touring the country effectively asking crowds the country effectively asking crowds the country effectively asking crowds that. Tell me how I'm wrong. Ask me that. Tell me how I'm wrong. Ask me that. Tell me how I'm wrong. Ask me anything. I'll defend any of my anything. I'll defend any of my anything. I'll defend any of my positions. And I'll do so openly at positions. And I'll do so openly at positions. And I'll do so openly at length in public. And if he died for length in public. And if he died for length in public. And if he died for anything, it's that. In fact, he died anything, it's that. In fact, he died anything, it's that. In fact, he died doing that. doing that. doing that. And so, if you wanted to honor his And so, if you wanted to honor his And so, if you wanted to honor his memory, of course, you would try to keep memory, of course, you would try to keep memory, of course, you would try to keep that dying tradition alive. No one seems that dying tradition alive. No one seems that dying tradition alive. No one seems to be doing that. But what you wouldn't to be doing that. But what you wouldn't to be doing that. But what you wouldn't do under any circumstances is do the do under any circumstances is do the do under any circumstances is do the thing that he devoted his life to thing that he devoted his life to thing that he devoted his life to fighting, which is shutting down speech fighting, which is shutting down speech fighting, which is shutting down speech you don't like with threats or you don't like with threats or you don't like with threats or censorship or even with back of the hand censorship or even with back of the hand censorship or even with back of the hand dismissals and name calling. No, you dismissals and name calling. No, you dismissals and name calling. No, you would pause and take seriously the would pause and take seriously the would pause and take seriously the criticism even if you think it's criticism even if you think it's criticism even if you think it's illegitimate aimed at you or your illegitimate aimed at you or your illegitimate aimed at you or your beliefs and explain why it's wrong and beliefs and explain why it's wrong and beliefs and explain why it's wrong and offer a counter vision of what you think offer a counter vision of what you think offer a counter vision of what you think is right. is right. is right. This was what the right used to refer to This was what the right used to refer to This was what the right used to refer to famously as the marketplace of ideas famously as the marketplace of ideas famously as the marketplace of ideas because the idea was that the market because the idea was that the market because the idea was that the market itself was self-correcting. That was the itself was self-correcting. That was the itself was self-correcting. That was the beauty. There was an invisible hand in beauty. There was an invisible hand in beauty. There was an invisible hand in charge of the market and it would find charge of the market and it would find charge of the market and it would find natural equilibrium if you just backed natural equilibrium if you just backed natural equilibrium if you just backed off and allowed that to happen.

off and allowed that to happen. off and allowed that to happen. So if two people had opposing views, So if two people had opposing views, So if two people had opposing views, they would debate those views in public they would debate those views in public they would debate those views in public and then the people watching could and then the people watching could and then the people watching could decide which was valid on the basis of decide which was valid on the basis of decide which was valid on the basis of the strength of the arguments and the the strength of the arguments and the the strength of the arguments and the facts marshaled. facts marshaled. facts marshaled. That was the tradition of debate. In That was the tradition of debate. In That was the tradition of debate. In fact, that was the core of the western fact, that was the core of the western fact, that was the core of the western tradition of discourse tradition of discourse tradition of discourse going all the way back to Athens.

Summary
The main theme is honoring Charlie Kirk's memory by understanding his core beliefs, primarily his sincere Christianity and his passionate defense of free speech as an inherent, God-given right. The practical takeaway is that true remembrance lies in understanding and upholding these fundamental principles that shaped his life and advocacy.
