Rob Schneider: The ‘Real Weapon Against Tyranny Is Free Speech’
Breitbart News ^ | 28 Sep 2024 | Hannah Knudsen

Posted on 09/29/2024 3:19:29 AM PDT by george76

The “real weapon against tyranny is free speech,” actor, comedian, and author of the new book You Can Do It!: Speak Your Mind, America, Rob Schneider, said during an interview on Breitbart News Saturday.

“The idea … really, is there seems to be a contraction of free speech, and it’s happening, whereas even the government has been proved that they’re violating Americans’ First Amendment rights, you know. Thank God for Elon Musk, who exposed what happened to Twitter,” he said, touching on the collusion between tech companies and the U.S. government.

They were working, he continued, to “silence Americans who had a different opinion and didn’t want to go along with the government narrative.”

“You can just imagine that they did the same thing to Facebook, because … Mark Zuckerberg admitted it. He said, ‘Yeah, we did this, man,’ and I think he, for whatever reasons, he admitted it a week ago. It was happening everywhere. And then, you know, Google, of course … has CIA connections and won’t admit anything or say anything, but through Dr. Robert Epstein, we know now that Google has suppressed conservative causes, and they are also colluding with the CIA and the government to suppress stuff that they don’t want to hear.

...

70 percent of all the wealth in America is owned by Democrats, you realize the party of the people is now the Republican Party

...

Democrats, he continued, “Whatever is going to help them gain power. They don’t care what it is. They’re not a democratic organization anymore. They know they don’t support the democratic republic that we are founded under. They just — they make decisions for the Democratic voters,” he added.

The problem is the media...

Elon is trying to overcome but they are just so big and he started from "0".

Without the 2nd Amendment, free speech is always a puff of wind away from extinction. For Americans and those around the world.

Elon Musk is committed and he is getting huge response to promising freedom of expression. His traffic on X is up 22% last numbers I saw. The Leftist trolls were out in force the last 2 days. But because our side is no longer throttled, we can defend ourselves. Mocking a Leftist Troll is fun. Most are stupid. Last time I heard his Star Link had 4 million users. And he continues to put more satellites in orbit. Airlines and Shipping companies and Cruise ships are relying on him heavily. And it is portable and is working well.

Mass non-compliance is what stopped a lot of the tyrannical covid policies.

MY MONEY IS ON ELON.

HE doesn’t need a committee to make decisions.

Musk is 'THE COMMITTEE'.

Such a distinctly diverse man.

John ‘effing’ Kerry feels there would be more consensus if not for the first amendment. Kerry’s right on this - there total consensus in places like North Korea.

Well. That’s the first line. Then there’s the 2nd, to back it up when the first fails.
