Here’s a puzzle I think about a lot. If any academic field is associated with the contemporary debate surrounding free speech, it’s psychology. Haidt, Pinker, Peterson, Saad, Jussim, even Lehmann. All specialize or have backgrounds in academic psych. So what’s the puzzle?
I'm a psych prof, and I take your point that we need a lot of epistemic humility -- but that applies to both average folks and elites. I don't see how curtailing free speech helps promote epistemic humility & viewpoint diversity among our deeply delusional elites.
Whilst I'm no psychologist, in principle we should at least aim for open discourse and debate, because we have more than sufficient historical precedent to demonstrate the alternative.
If anything, dismissing free speech as an elitist enterprise would be the most obvious display of noxious elitist attitudes. I'm not particularly sanguine about prospects of "converting" those who don't want free speech--but we'd be remiss to not try for the others.
There it is... they seem ignorant of the fact that their degrees and their elevated IQs correlate to increased motivated reasoning, not to mention the lack of association with wisdom/ethics. Indeed, they seem to be deluded into believing the opposite of the truth.
