Listen to this article: It sure is interesting how stuff keeps happening that makes free speech on the internet something dangerous which must be curtailed. Covid, the Capitol riot, Russian propaganda, all of which just happen to require tightening restrictions on our single best tool against the powerful.
Please don't take to heart the feedback about your anti-capitalist postures. If one deeply understands the principles, processes and extensive communication networks by which biological systems function and self-regulate, one can only conclude that the economic system of capitalism is an offense against Nature. To not be anti-that is quite simply suicidal, as you have frequently noted.
Amusingly, l had your titled conversation with my mother just last night. It hadn't dawned on her that her favorite NBC News anchor Brian Williams is where he is because he was self-selected to repeat propaganda in exchange for millions of dollars. In her confusion my mother had assumed he was a sincere, well-spoken man whose job was to inform her. At 95 she just might be coming around.
I've highlighted the abusive relationship before. "Yeah, we lied before, and we're really sorry we promise never to do it again." Alexander Mercouris just released a video critiquing Blinken's defense of the "rules based order." Blinken acknowledged that the US has previously engaged in human rights abuses, but "this is now" and we're never going to do it again. Therefor, we have the right to judge other countries and intervene. While it's important not to throw away the underlying values that led to the abolition of slavery and the end of Jim Crow, we must not forget past violations of those values and deny the likelihood of current and future violations.
Good to see Caitlin also acknowledging that abusive relationship as well.
