Think You’re Paranoid? Don’t Worry. The System Really is Against You.

If you’ve ever considered that the systems of governance seem to be geared towards crushing the regular folk, you’d not be far wrong. It’s not exactly that the machinations of the elite are specifically against the individual, it’s just that the individual is an inconvenience to the processes of power. Should you think this position is a little out there, consider the following:

Free-Speech Zones

If there is such a thing as a Free Speech Zone, by its very nature this means that all other areas are not Free Speech Zones. When the government (and in many cases the College Administrations) can tell you when, where and for what time limit you are legally allowed to protest, it is no longer a protest. It is a State-sponsored exercise period.

According to Indiana University in their Constitutional Assessment of Free Speech Zones, “restrictions are at best a lazy attempt to deal with the potential side effects of vigorous First Amendment activity.” and “are a terrible idea”.

This has been my perspective since I was in high school. I graduated in 1972.

It’s gotten MUCH worse. The US is very close to the old USSR I learned about in early 1960’s public school. Sure, we don’t have the fear of death by men in the night, but that is not necessary to silence dissent. Simply raiding your business for “structuring” or exercising a little “asset forfeiture” does the trick. As does a well timed IRS audit.

And there are many other ways. The point is that if you simply shut up and obey you’ll be fine. Become a thorn in their side and you can wait in line behind the Bundy family.
