Kennedy’s reasoning silently drops unfunded and weak voices from politics

Evidence

Second, persons are not merely producers, but consumers of speech, and government interference is a menace—wrong in principle and harmful in effect — at both ends. The marketplace of ideas, Kennedy repeats tirelessly, is what decides the value of speech claims. Every citizen must judge the content of speech for himself or herself; it cannot be a matter for government determination, just as government should not usurp other consumer choices. In this discussion, Kennedy makes no mention of shared deliberation or judgment in politics or of voices that are unfunded and relatively powerless. — Wendy Brown, Undoing the Demos, 315
