CONTEXT DECIDES
A clip goes viral.
Outrage follows.
Meaning gets assigned before intent is even considered.
Tonight on Data & Dissonance, we break down how free speech has shifted from “What was said?” to “What are we supposed to think about what was said?” When context becomes fluid and enforcement becomes selective, speech doesn’t disappear — it gets managed.
Who decides what something means once it hits the algorithm?
Who benefits from the first interpretation sticking?
And are we protecting people — or protecting narratives?
Four perspectives. One uncomfortable question.
Slow down. Think first. Question the framing.
