Wisdom

No one can judge speech from one side of the fence

it's not hard, it's impossible to sit back as a third party and make unbiased decisions about speech. And whether those things that somebody is saying is independently right or wrong. It from only your side of the fence.

Summary

Dave's realization about why he cares about free speech and refuses to act as an editor: reality is more complicated than we want it to be. Viewed from one side, say the Western one, you exclude an entire view of what's happening. It's impossible for a third party to make unbiased decisions about whether someone's speech is right or wrong.
