The forces determined to monopolize the public square through censorship, lies, and social pressure have devastated universities and scholarship generally, allowed a corrupt public health bureaucracy to ravage our lives, and stuck us with the most incompetent and corrupt leadership in our history. There are signs that this monopoly is hitting some bumps in the road, and if you are brave enough you can and should help the cause by fighting to keep your right to speak freely.
One of the biggest forces behind the shifting tide is Elon Musk, who spent a fortune to unlock Twitter from government control. He speaks for me here:
@elonmusk
"It's bizarre that we've come to this point where free speech used to be a liberal value. And yet we see from the 'left' a desire to censor. That seems crazy. I think we should be extremely concerned about anything that undermines the First Amendment...
We must protect free speech, and free speech is only relevant when it's someone you don't like saying something you don't like because, obviously, free speech that you like is easy. The thing about censorship is that for those who would advocate it, just remember at some point that will be turned on you."
Two candidates for the presidency have joined the battle for free speech. Whether you support them or not, they represent a significant force for exposing political mendacity and fighting for the truth as they see it.
The first is the biggest threat to the nomination of the Biden-Harris American wrecking balls: Robert F, Kennedy, Jr., author of The Real Anthony Fauci, a takedown of the slippery man who was lionized by the press as he destroyed our economy and civic life. Fauci’s day in the sun is fast coming to a close

I hope Elon has good security!

This is Trump’s time and I am 100% on board with him for 2024.
That said, I’ve been impressed by Vivek. He’s a very bright guy. I’d like to see Trump give him a prominent cabinet position. He’s one to keep an eye on for the future.
If this needs to be explained to people, we have already lost.
(Raise your hand if you put a child in public school.)
Speaking of Musk...
Recently checked to see if I’m still banned on Twitter.
I am.
Been banned since 2019. And I made a record of the event.
Interesting thing is that Twitter has my account banned a few months later. And someone still tweeting on my account up until that time.
It wasn’t me...
As a society, we CANNOT protect free speech by patronizing platforms which actively and openly suppress it.
We are looking more like China every single day now.
The very idea of trying to explain anything to them is absurd.
The problem in our country isn't that the Republic is gone (though it certainly is). The problem is that a massive percentage of our population has literally gone insane.
We can all speculate about how this was accomplished or by whom, but that is beside the point.
The point is, can people so insane (literally insane) be cured? Is there a remedy for this condition?
As an aside, I remember when people used to speak of the "falling away" (2 Thessalonians 2:3) as some great apostasy or a falling away from the churches and the faith.
People never thought that the "falling away" might be a departure en masse from the very God-created/designed reality of life on Earth. No one suggested that the great "falling away" might mean that people would depart from their existence as human beings and become zombie-like creatures.
The only difference between the people on the Left in this country and the Walking Dead is that the mind-dead Lefties aren't losing limbs and eating human flesh. But that might be coming soon (they are already losing genitalia).
“The only difference between the people on the Left in this country and the Walking Dead is that the mind-dead Lefties aren’t losing limbs and eating human flesh.”
We don’t know for sure about that “eating flesh” thing. The left seems to be doing some very creepy things that aren’t discussed in polite society.
"Night of the Living Dead" and "World War Z" are beginning to look like documentaries.
‘Multiculturalism’ undermines any chance of stopping what is going on.
“The people on the Left are doing things to babies (born and unborn) and adolescents that boggle the mind.”
Some are saying that the thousands of disappearing illegal children that have been brought across the border are for the purpose of organ harvesting. IDK. Nothing surprises me any more.

I know we are perplexed by the Woke among us, but we are looking at monsters in the making. When the Wokesters reach their full monstrous potential, they will make the Nazis running Auschwitz, Buchenwald, and Dachau look downright civilized.
Organ harvesting and sex-slavery.
Excellent article!
Um, no Clarice.
Musk leapt right into the spider’s web and he knows just how to play the spider.
He is no hero, at least not demonstrably and certainly not while running a government-affiliated enterprise.
