  1. Joe's explanation of Leiter's ideas don't seem to touch on free speech but instead on freedom to access to information. Free speech, for example, in the political and policy realm are about what solutions to social issues can be advanced. For example, the so-called "climate crisis". This is an example of a minority of political and scientific elites forcing the rest of society into neo-Malthusian, neo-eugenic social policies (such as expensive, rationed energy). They did this by trashing free-speech and open enquiry in the scientific realm. It's not so much that freedon of speech is great. More the case that censorship and restriction of enquiry is catastrophically bad.
