There are currently a couple of kinetic wars ongoing- one in Ukraine and another in the Middle East but there is a third one that threatens the freedom of pretty much everyone on Earth.
It is the war on free speech. And it’s global.
During the 2020 election the FBI and former CIA officers suppressed information harmful to Joe Biden. In 2022 Biden pressured social media to again suppress information harmful to democrats. Without a doubt this affected the elections. With the taste of success in his mouth Biden is once again looking to suppress free speech, especially as Americans are not buying his gaslighting on the economy. The regime is depicting it as combating “disinformation” in the same manner that the Trump dossier was Russian disinformation.
Cause for concern: The Biden team is 'working with social media platforms to counter misinformation.' This time it seeks to 'counter' reports that food and other items cost a lot after Biden-era inflation. From WP: https://t.co/Zsx8ztHCn6

In Canada, Trudeau is crushing free speech.
Canadians made the mistake of taking free speech for granted. Now, President Biden’s friend, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, is close to having new laws in place that would expand government regulation of online speech in Canada. In fact, Biden will be traveling to Canada later this month on an official state visit. For the sake of the United States, here’s hoping that Biden doesn’t get any ideas from Trudeau.In France, Macron is doing much the sameThe Canadian legislation in question is known as Bill C-11, or the Online Streaming Act. Ostensibly a way to prioritize the “needs and interests” of Canadians, the Trudeau administration claims the act will ensure online algorithms promote Canadian content on social media and streaming platforms like Netflix, Disney+ and Spotify. Yet when a multi-partisan group of Canadian Senators proposed an amendment to the legislation to protect what individual citizens say on social media from government oversight and regulation, the Trudeau administration rejected the amendment.
French President Emmanuel Macron has intensified his drive for heightened censorship measures in France, advocating for the state to possess the authority to impose “digital public order” during periods of civil unrest and protests.In England this is allowed in Sadiq Khan’s London…
To address the issue, the French president calls for the government to institute “digital public order,” granting authorities the power to remove problematic content from social media. The aim is to “better protect young people from screens through partnerships with platforms,” as reported by Le Figaro.
Imagine me, or Tommy Robinson, or Ashlea Simon, saying the following on the streets of London:

Ask your Republican congressman what he or she is doing about it.
Nothing. That's right.
You have a political elite (career politicians and even dynasties) and bureaucratic establishment, both having ties to a few oligarchs with disproportionately large influence on government and the elections.
You no longer have a government by the people and for the people.
How to fix this?
Few times in history has global tyranny been as widespread and so totally controlled...
Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Hitler, FDR, LBJ, and Lenin must be spinning in their graves-in-hell in envy...
” Ask your Republican congressman what he or she is doing about it.
Nothing. That’s right.”
Because they stand to reap the very same censorship rewards and then when asked blame it on the Democrats.
Very well said. And a fact.
“You no longer have a government by the people and for the people.
How to fix this?”
When, in the course of human events...
Who is going to do it? Everyone I hear that from can’t talk about it much because the ballgame is on, or they are too old like myself, or they have far too many direct responsibilities they absolutely have to maintain or family solely dependent on them.
And those who are left are mindless brain dead zombies who are embracing this new garbage as normal and acceptable.
.
Due to copyright problems, I cannot post it, but I read that free speech shall be suppressed by the academia.
“Who is going to do it?”
Probably the same people who always do it, desperate men who don’t have much left to lose. Which pretty much rules out the boomers, who despite noticing the state of the country, are too fat and happy enjoying their golden years to want to take the risk.
So in other words... All those who would are about all deceased.
