Freedom of speech makes it sound like "freedom" is some random variable that can be assigned to various activities. That ends up FALSELY coloring how we think about the freedom of speech, because we end up looking at each type of speech under a separate lens, independent of other types of speech, to determine how much "freedom" we think it should enjoy. We see campaign donations and we assess the "freedom" we think they should enjoy (or not), separate from other forms of speech like posting yard signs.

That's not what the framers meant though. The freedom of speech is an entirely separate freedom of its own. "Freedom" isn't a variable, it's a constant that applies to all things that fall under the category "speech." Our task is not to figure out how much freedom should be applied to any given form of speech, but to map out the contours of the THE freedom that we are applying as universally as possible to all speech.

"The freedom of speech" does not include "the freedom to commit murder." See how easy this is when you include the word "the" in your discussion? I'm also being consistent with the actual Constitution in my phrasing here too.

You think it's gay that commercial speech enjoys 1st amendment protections, I get that. But those same commercial speech protections are the only legal recourse anyone has against the FDA for mRNA fraud right now. A supplement manufacturer could put "COVID vaccine" on their label, invite FDA enforcement, bring a 1st amendment challenge, and have a reasonably good chance of winning. There is at over a decade of very legit scholarship on this. Furthermore even if they lose the publicity could be devastating.

No, I mean the government doesn't own the words "safe" and "efficacious." As far as I know I have a first amendment right to use those two words as I see fit. What's the FDA's rationale for saying Pfizer can use those words on its labels but I can't? Also what level of due process am I entitled here, in light of the fact that a fundamental liberty is at stake? What level of scrutiny must we apply to the FDA's actions?

No proper challenge would have been possible in April 2021, that's for sure. The terrain has shifted since then. This article is from 2018 and explains it better than I can:

https://www.fdli.org/2018/11/no-longer-business-as-usual-fda-exceptionalism-commercial-speech-and-the-first-amendment/

Supplement manufacturers can seek strict scrutiny now and GET IT. FDA does not want strict scrutiny applied to its decision to approve mRNA. Not right now. Imagine what discovery would look like. You could turn them inside out.

Suppose vitamin D can in fact meet the absurdly low threshold for scientific proof already set by these agencies when they let mRNA get special legal protections.

Or in the alternative, suppose it can't, but I want a hearing on the merits and a ruling on that issue. Can I at least get discovery on what other entities have applied for and been granted this speech license? I think strict scrutiny entitles me to that.

1) If you can prove Vitamin D effectively treats or prevents Covid, sure. Spoiler: you can't.

2) No, because it's not a matter of a "speech license" and is not something one applies for and is granted. The FTC doesn't grant people licenses for anything.

1) I can "prove" lots of things effectively cure COVID or prevent it from becoming serious with at least the same level of statistical certainty Pfizer can say its drugs do jack shit. I can do it a hell of a lot better than Merck, which had a drug approved that showed NEGATIVE efficacy. If u don't like vitamin D I'll pick studies on nitric oxide, or pretty much whatever the fuck. You'll say they're not RCTs and I'll bring in statisticians to explain why my observational stats are more robust than stats drawn from RCTs conducted to shitty standards, as Pfizer's were. I'll seek discovery and find out just exactly what level of scientific scrutiny Pfizer had to meet to get that speech license.

2. Yes it is. The license is literally called an "authorization" and it authorizes you to advertise your drug to health care providers as "safe" and "effective" for treating COVID.

The FTC defers to the FDA on what's a safe and effective COVID therapy. It doesn't make its own determinations. So does the CDC for that matter. You sound like a clown. You obviously didn't look at the scholarship from 2018 that I just poasted on this exact topic. I can tell you haven't been following Richard Epstein's rants on off label use since ~2011 and you don't show signs of having taken admin law, statistics, or research methods and design.

Oh, forgot to mention, dipshit pumo: the safety profile of vitamin D (or nitric oxide or whatever) is already established and meets FDA standards. You can already buy nitric oxide boosting supplements. All anyone needs to "prove" is efficacy. What makes you think that can't be done? What makes you think observational data hasn't already been used in precisely this fashion to gain the right to amend the labels of previously approved drugs and supplements?

It restricts the use of terms like "safe and effective." It does so through a decision making process that meets rational basis test but flunks strict scrutiny. Generally, as a matter of administrative law, when a fundamental right is at stake, you are entitled to strict scrutiny. So at the very least I think the FDA has to be held to a strict scrutiny standard when issuing this particular speech license.

I'll expand on what I think are some characteristics of the freedom of speech.

For one thing, I think there are hierarchies of speech within it. At the upper echelon should be political speech. We should have bat ears tuned to anything that looks like a limit on political speech.

A recent trend was to dress up limits on political speech as "campaign finance reform." There is still compelled speech associated with certain political speech ("I'm X and I approve this message") that has never been challenged.

Many of the framers also went on to pass the alien and sedition acts, one of the harshest attacks on freedom of speech ever legislated. Don’t get too hung up on what they said and wrote. They were the smart guys of their day but far from the demigods that many make them out to be.

I'm getting hung up on what they wrote in the US Constitution. You go worry about other things.

The point is that the guys who wrote didn't even take it that seriously like 10 years later, lol. So stop fellating these guys and acting like the Constitution is Moses' fucking tablets.
