Liberty (by which we mean a just liberty, one for which society is duty bound to enforce respect) is itself the product of a set of rules.”

Celá debata o ČT a ČRo je úplně vedle. Krach tradičních médií ve prospěch influencerů radikálně snižuje informovanost neelit. Potřebovali bychom se bavit, jak to radikálně posílená veřejnoprávní média mohou pomoct zvrátit, ne psát memoranda, co všechno nesmí dělat a umetat cestu fašismu.
