Speaker 1: the right thing to do. He preached about the importance
Speaker 1: of being clear on moral questions. He advocated basing decisions
Speaker 1: on values, and he closed with these inspiring words, I
Speaker 1: believe the most sacred thing that each of us is
Speaker 1: given is our judgment, our morality, our own innate desire
Speaker 1: to separate right from wrong. Choosing to set that responsibility
Speaker 1: aside at a moment of trial is a sin. The

Speaker 1: Defamation League's Courage Against Hate Award, very first one they've
Speaker 1: ever awarded. He wasn't talking about the Golden Rule or
Speaker 1: the spirit of the season. He was talking about the
Speaker 1: sacred duty to kick certain people off of tech platforms,
Speaker 1: divisive people. Not kicking them off as a sin. This
Speaker 1: new religion of Mr Cooks is a real ho ho ho.
Speaker 1: It's Mary shut up if we don't approve, and there
Speaker 1: goes all cooperation I've ever had with Apple out the window.
