We Know Something That Most Americans Don’t - How I became a thought-criminal.

Then I finally came to live in the U.S. and discovered a country chained by political correctness, which has become America’s new zeitgeist. Censorship came not as much from the government as from the media denouncements, which were then universally repeated by the mindless adepts of “progressivism.” Wherever I look I see a never-ending buildup of false narratives in an increasingly unfree society, where few things remain to be enjoyed for their beauty without the political ball and chain attached to them. One can’t even buy a chicken sandwich or watch a TV show, let alone read the news, without thinking about political messaging, symbolism, or ulterior motives.

The perpetrator is, once again, leftist ideology. It may not be a replica of the Soviet ideology, but it is nonetheless aligned with the general delusional idea of a world-wide socialist Utopia achieved through a totalitarian rule of “benevolent” elites. And now the totalitarian leftists are teaming up with the totalitarian Islamists. The censorship in Western societies has redoubled since Islam came into play. Apparently the leftists are hoping that Islamic supremacism will quietly go away once it helps them to conquer the world. That is, of course, yet another dangerous delusion.

Good old piece from 2016. Oleg Atbashian, the People’s Cube guy, really gets it.

I watched a Sky News Australia program with the new New Zealand Energy Minister. Boy was he really taking the last administration there to the woodshed.

They had / have the same types blocking free speech and blocking anything because of a lizard, butterfly etc. that we do. This tells me it is China and Russia paying for this along with USAID funded commies here in the USA. Liliputians restricting freedom everywhere.

NZ is ridding net zero policies ‘brick by brick’ after Jacinda Ardern’s ‘crippling’ gas decision

IIRC Australia/New Zealand were the worst countries in the Kovid Krap lockdowns, or close to it.

This stuff would’ve been reasonably accurate if it was written about 20 years earlier than it was.
