“…these particular sayings tend to communicate perspectives that are in favor of “small-D” democratic values like free speech, epistemic humility, and intellectual pluralism…”

More accurately, they are in favour of “small-L” libertarian/classical liberal values. Democracy, whether real or the normal oligarchic pretence, is a danger to them.

Free speech must be doing pretty well if these are the lengths you have to go to in order to complain about something. Do you ever stop to conside the fact that your whole cause is dedicated to being offended by what people are saying about free speech?
