"If the freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter." — George Washington. The treasonous ghouls want to slaughter the First. We'd be next.
Like coherent light, your language illuminates and sears the woke evils that are overtaking us. Your writing is superb. It's simultaneously engrossing to read, and sickening to acknowledge that what it describes is happening. We've got to hand it to our enemy, they are enormously clever; they're managing to clamp down on each and every little aspect of American life before we even realize it's happened. I would never have thought of disaster relief as their next method of disintegrating our society, but there it is.
As for free speech and information, our side hasn't done enough to analyze the ideology behind the tyrants' motivations. Sure, it's easy to pin it on the usual suspects, 'greed', 'power', 'money', etc etc. But to my way of thinking, that's a somewhat superficial approach. We have to dig deeper, in order to show up their arguments as illogical and/or immoral, and thus hold them up for personal ridicule.
Information is indivisible. It's a unitary concept. Any attempts to subdivide it into categories such as mis-, dis-, mal-, and hate- are false. They're stealth attempts to divide and conquer. If you think such categories are valid, you've accepted the deranged mindset of your enemy.
The key aspect is the following: Only you have the right to judge information. But the only way you can judge information is by using more information. That's the purpose of free speech, to allow everyone the ability to gather more information and judge it accordingly. Thus anyone who wants to control information is by definition your enemy who is trying to control you.
Walz, the perfect example of a braindead wokust minion, had a kneejerk fit and regurgitated the standard meme about 'fire in a theater'. Let's do some analysis to see how it was always wrong, even from the lips of some vaunted Supreme Court justice. First and foremost, it's a highly specialized situation, that is totally inappropriate for thinking about free speech as a whole. When someone shouts a warning in a theater, the urgency of the situation precludes each listeners' ability to spend time on collecting more information, in order to determine if the shouter is telling the truth. Thus it has nothing to do with our premise that information can be judged only with more information, which includes the vast number of normal situations where the time to collect, analyze, and judge information is both essential and assumed to be available.
Woke left tyrants treat information like a virus against which the unwashed masses must be protected by lockdowns (censorship), mask filters (narratives), and injections (propaganda). Instead, information is a body of water in which everyone has a personal responsibility to learn how to swim, so that they can effectively move towards the truth. Unfortunately, if the reader doesn't understand all this, then they deserve the tyranny they're already getting.
Truly great comment. Thank you. Alas, you wrote, 'Unfortunately, if the reader doesn't understand all this, then they deserve the tyranny they're already getting,' and the realness of it scares the living bejesus out of me.
