It takes a lot of courage to speak out what you really think, rather than just get along with the tide. So, I admire you for that.

Am also a bit concerned about the endangerment of freedom of expression among both conservative and liberal denominations in this country, especially the apparent hatred toward people who dont agree with your views.

But anyway, I dont want to comment on anything in particular or "controversial", as apparently I've been told that unless I've something good to say, I shouldnt even express my opinions in this country, on account of being a worthless foreigner.

Freedom of expression, like the rest of the Bill of Rights, is under assault in this country.

The one-party system that runs this country has done a brilliant propaganda job at exploting the conservative-liberal divide in this country, and using it to divide and conquer. (I would argue that the *real* divison is along the lines of statist vs. individual). The powers that be have done a really effective job of implementing their statist agenda, regardless of whether a "liberal" or "conservative" is in power.
