The fight for free speech must continue through tyranny
American Thinker ^ | 21 Jan, 2021 | Diana Mary Sitek

Alexander Solzhenitsyn warned that courage and integrity are the only remedies for what befalls us now.

Pennsylvania lieutenant governor John Fetterman (D) announced that President Trump has no right to say that the election was stolen, because it is not protected speech. The Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment prohibits the State from "abridging the freedom of speech," but does not define what that freedom entails. The Supreme Court has interpreted the clause to protect against State regulation of certain areas of "protected" speech and conduct, which permit individual and collective speech "in pursuit of a wide variety of political, economic, educational, religious, and cultural ends."

SNIP

Two ignominious impeachments along with hypocritical standards towards political violence, bribery, and corruption — in fact, almost every strategy the Democrats employ is fraudulent, defamatory, and designed to thwart the rule of law. Now we are entertained by their servile surveillance media commandeering the function of the State by uneven-handedly shutting down any opposition to the Democrat narrative, by labeling it as unprotected "hate speech." It is "hate speech" because they hate it! The narcissist self-esteem of pathological liars is invested in their lying, and opposition infuriates them.

If a statement is true, it cannot be false, despite close interrogation. If interrogation is not permitted, liars will prevail. Therefore, the most telling characteristic of liars is that they abhor argument. They abjure doubt. They repudiate disputation. They deny admission of factual evidence which contradicts their lies. The illogical diatribes of the "woke" do not even rise to the level of a valid proposition in any Platonic dialogue, yet are never debated in academia. Discussion is shut down. Every challenger is ostracized, in order to conceal an irrational, obscurantist intellectual aridity.

I had a hard time editing this down to 300 words. The entire article is good and 300 word does it no justice. Send it to your favorite democRAT.

Americans mostly still believe in free speech. We can learn a lot from the 60s free speech movement. The issues are the same only more acute now. THIS is how we can do it.

The righteous have a powerful force on their side. The Truth will prevail over evil.

Continue to Worship God and pray for all to believe in the Truth of God.

Our life on earth is short and soon we will know how God sees our sins. We all need to turn away from sin to please God.
