They Fear You
American Thinker ^ | 17 Apr, 2023 | J.B. Shurk

The federal government's number-one worry is you.

Long before the Department of Homeland Security attempted to justify the formal recognition of a "Disinformation Czar" to monitor Americans' speech or news broke that the State Department had been using a foreign organization called the Global Disinformation Index to censor conservative voices here at home, it was clear that the war for free speech had begun. For years, conservative websites struggled to survive financially as shadowbans and stealth blacklisting eliminated advertising revenues and throttled user engagement. Online trolls infiltrated comment sections posting inflammatory content that could be used as false flag justifications to legally threaten or otherwise punish conservative forums. Conservative content creators and their readers strenuously objected to the organized censorship war being waged against them, but few politicians, reporters, or pundits cared.

Now the cat is out of the bag, and neither government agencies nor their corporate co-conspirators are hiding their embrace of viewpoint discrimination. The FBI continues to flag more language — including words as innocuous as "red pill," "based," and "Chad" — as extremist rhetoric. Google blocked Right Side Broadcasting Network from covering President Trump's Democrat-engineered Manhattan arraignment on YouTube, claiming that the censorship was necessary to combat "elections misinformation." A revolving door now exists to fill social media companies with employees from the ranks of the FBI, CIA, and Homeland Security. Meanwhile, Klaus Schwab's World Economic Forum has announced the hiring of millions of "information warriors" tasked with the mission to "seize control of the Internet" and serve as "digital first-responders" combating "misinformation." Already in France, one woman faces a $13,000 fine for calling King Macron "filth" on Facebook.

As the American Uniparty's collaboration with Schwab's Marxist globalists continues to grow, expect these serious violations of the First Amendment's protections for free speech to proliferate.

Why would the government fear its own citizens? Are they afraid that the citizens may believe in the “Do Unto Others” thing?

The media lies. Kyle Rittenhaus was a racist that murdered two black men. The J6 protestors were an armed mob that murdered five police officers. These are not just stretches of the truth or exaggerations; they are lies created from the imaginations of warped, hateful minds. Then they accuse critics of of doing exactly what they’re doing. Lies compounded by more lies. Their lying is open and obvious, but still they lie. And lie. And lie.

"When the servant of the man of God (Elijah) got up and went out early the next morning, an (Aramean) army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. “Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?” the servant (of Elijah) asked. “Don’t be afraid,” the prophet (Elijah) answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them (the Arameans).” And Elisha prayed, “Open (my servant's) eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. As the enemy came down toward him, Elisha prayed to the Lord, “Strike this army with blindness.” So he struck them with blindness, as Elisha had asked. - 2 Kings 6: 15-18

Father, just as you blinded the enemies of Israel in Elijah's day, today, blind the enemies of your people and utterly destroy their evil influence in both our nation and the world - in Jesus Name I pray!

They don’t fear us.

They may worry about us causing problems. Like refusing to pay taxes timely. Refusing to use dollars. Refusing to spend much money. However, like Joe Biden says “They don’t have nuclear weapons and F-15’s) so they don’t really fear us.

If FedGov really feared the people, Covid-19 and the 156 million voter phenomenon would have never happened. It was an ‘in your face’ statement by FedGov.

Deep State has learned from history.

That’s why we don’t know who installed the POTATUS and who’s running the shadow government.

Hard to remove them when we don’t know who they are.

And if we remove their frontmen...

Well, no biggie. There are more where they came from, aren’t there...

They fear us?

Is that why the J6 protestors all got such speedy & fair trials?
Is that why President Trump is being treated as he is?
Is that why we now have a multi-tiered Just-us system?
Is that why the FBI is now more and more like the Gestapo or the Stasi or the KFB?
Is that why American elections are more like Cuba’s? And just as trustworthy?
Is that why it is no longer safe to go to American cities? Even medium sized cities?
Is that why we no longer trust any ‘elected’ official?

Y’all feel free to add to my modest list.

There were a couple obvious ones here on FR, zealously pushing a second buffalo jump in D.C. in the aftermath of J6.

“Why would the government fear its own citizens?”

“When the government fears its citizens there is liberty. When the citizens fear their government there is tyranny.”

The NY and DC elites are surrounded by government goodie getters, who are being bought off.

Someday areas of Hispanics will finally safely separate the elites and the thugs they truly fear.

They have deliberately flooded the country with low IQ people, have deliberately dumbed down the schools, have deliberately created a massive propaganda machine, have deliberately created an army of informers, have deliberately created a multitier justice system, they have deliberately created an army of criminals to terrorize practically every city in the country, they have deliberately created an army of pedophiles and other perverts to cause chaos in every institution in the country including churches, they have deliberately opened our voting system to fraud, they’ve created a political terrorist force to attack anyone they disagree with.

That’s just some of the things they’ve done in just the last few years.

Yes, our government is very afraid of people who, upon command, started wearing a face mask, sat by idly while their places of worship were forcibly closed, along with their businesses and children’s schools.

Then these “scary” citizens knelt down and received a new injection, so the government would give them “permission” to earn a living and participate in society.

Yes, our government is extremely frightened of these citizens!!

They won’t fear us until they are concerned about going home at night. It wouldn’t take but a strategic few.

Fear of the Lord drives away all other fears.

I’m not certain, but it seems obvious that it was during Zero’s reign that the US government literally adopted Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals and we are now seeing it almost daily.

They successfully recruited THOUSANDS of activists to work in government and now the entirety of the bureaucracy is corrupt. It’s the only reason the lockdowns occurred and, frankly, the success of the lockdowns - amid zero Congressional backlash - gave them license to press harder.
