Leftists hide behind censorship because they are terrified of fair debate

Why is censorship the go-to tactic for leftists? Well, if you ask them, they won't deny their love affair with the memory hole. In fact, most leftists will vehemently defend censorship as absolutely moral and for the "greater good." Their position is basically this: We live in a "society," and some ideas, thoughts and words are "dangerous" and destructive to that society. Therefore, those ideas and words must be eliminated from the open discussion so they can protect society from itself.

But who gets to decide which ideas are dangerous and which words are destructive? It's rather convenient that the political left has anointed themselves the pure and objective arbiters of our culture. Purity within leftist culture is measured by expressions of "empathy" (virtue signaling). They are the thought police because, somehow, they believe they are the most empathetic.

True empathy is impossible to measure in another human being. You could very well be dealing with a narcissist or psychopath that is very good at pretending they care and have a conscience. They might say all the right things and have all the right opinions in public, but in their private lives, they are malicious and take pleasure in causing pain in others. Humans are utterly fallible, which is why all systems of freedom seek to decentralize power through checks and balances. All systems that value freedom and peace seek to eliminate the existence of thought police.

Leftists (and globalists) have sought to circumvent checks and balances as well as free speech protections through a number of tactics. In much of the western world, they pay lip service to free speech rights when it is convenient for them, but most European nations and countries like Australia have no legitimate constitutional measures that restrict governments from easily initiating speech suppression laws whenever they want. This is what makes the U.S. so unique as a culture, and it is the reason why leftists have pursued other methods to silence dissent.

In America, the left has partnered with the corporate world and is attempting to use "business rights" as a means to attack and diminish conservative voices. That is to say, they think that if they can harass and pressure a business to deplatform their opposition then this is a technically legal tactic because a business has a right to associate or not associate with whomever they choose. If the power of government cannot be used to muzzle their opponents, then the power of corporations and Big Tech can be just as effective.

We have seen Big Tech and social media companies silence thousands (perhaps tens of thousands) of conservative names over the past few years. The whole time these companies and the media have denied that they specifically target people on the political right (which these days means anyone to the right of full-bore communism and globalism on the political spectrum). This gaslighting has been debunked over and over again. It is undeniable that conservatives are far more likely to be blocked or banned from social media than people who express leftist views.

Once confronted with the data that proves Big Tech is biased in favor of the left, they switch gears to the same old circular argument: "Well, conservatives are banned more from social media because they are the people always posting dangerous and destructive ideas..." And we're right back to where we started.

So, let's just establish some basic facts before moving forward in order to avoid any misunderstandings...

FACT 1: Leftists are rabidly pro-censorship. This is not up for debate. They will say conservatives do the same thing, but this is simply not true. We are not living in the America of the 1960s when religious suppression of ideas was prominent; we are living in the America of the 2020s where leftists have insinuated their own bizarre cult religion into U.S. life and are viciously seeking to silence anyone that disagrees with them.

FACT 2: Leftist censorship almost always aligns with the policies and desires of establishment elites. It is a mistake to assume that corporations are being "bullied" by the left. On the contrary, corporate elites are the people influencing leftist activists and molding social justice movements to serve establishment interests.

For example, why are leftists so aggressively pro-vax mandate? Because the establishment media told them they must be. When Trump was in office and the media was anti-vax, leftists were mostly anti-vax. When Biden entered the White House, the media became militantly pro-vax, so did the vast majority of leftists. They have no individual autonomy and no original thoughts; they are a hive mind waiting around for the establishment to tell them what to think.

FACT 3: Leftists believe they are justified in everything they do, no matter the consequence, and they view contrary facts and evidence with disdain. You will seldom see a leftist argue on the basis of merit, logic or results. They will always argue based on emotional justification, righteous indignation and the view that anyone that disagrees with them must be a terrible or evil person that has malicious intent.

This is why their go-to attacks are consistently personal; they use accusations of bigotry, racism, misogyny, etc. in order to avoid discussions on facts and evidence. Because if facts and evidence are being presented by a "literal Nazi," then all of those facts become null and void and the person can be ignored.

FACT 4: Leftists believe the mob is the law and all other laws must be subservient to the dictates of the "majority." Leftists are obsessed with majority rule and obsessed with manufacturing consent by manufacturing a false consensus. In other words, leftists believe that if they can trick or coerce 51 percent of the population to think the way they do, they have won and all of their actions are sacrosanct by the virtue of the majority. They actually believe that the other 49 percent of the population must submit to their dictates because the majority is God.



If they can't obtain that precious 51 percent of the population, then they will try to pretend as if they are the majority anyway. They will use coordinated mob attacks on their opponents to make it appear as if millions of people are against them when the mob is actually only in the hundreds or thousands. Exposure of their true numbers is like kryptonite to them, and they would rather disband than admit being in a tiny minority. They will respond by claiming the group "never existed" and is a "figment of conservative paranoia."

But what is all the subversion and chicanery meant to accomplish? Why not confront their opponents directly instead of using subterfuge?

Because they are afraid. They are terrified of legitimate debate on fair ground based on reality instead of emotional fantasy. They will do anything to avoid direct confrontation because they know they will lose.

I can't help but once again use the example of the leftist jihad against Joe Rogan to illustrate my point. The left hates Rogan because he allows both political sides to have a voice on his show, and his show is bigger than anything the leftists and the mainstream media can hope to engineer. Leftists believe that if they cannot control something then they must destroy it. An open platform that treats conservatives and their views fairly cannot be allowed to exist, so Rogan becomes a top target of the political left. It's really that simple.

The COVID pandemic and the vaccine mandates are merely a vehicle that leftists think they can use to rationalize the mass censorship they wanted long before the pandemic was a thing. They believe that the argument that "millions of lives are at risk" supplants all other debates. That is to say, the more people that die from COVID, the happier they are because those bodies can be used are fuel to push their ideological cult forward to greater power.

This is the same exact model they use for gun control. Gun rights are constitutionally protected regardless of the criminal actions of a small number of individuals, but leftists consistently seek to exploit tragic events and deaths to push their agenda. For them, deaths are a form of currency or social capital that can be spent to buy more power for their mob and take away more rights from the individual. If you stand against the left, this means you stand against "keeping people safe" and you must be a monster.

The interesting thing about COVID, however, is that it turns out not to be a very effective vehicle for the leftists in terms of using bodies to buy control.

As we saw when Joe Rogan confronted CNN's top medical correspondent, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, on his show, the political left is easy to destroy when it comes to debate on response to COVID. When Rogan contracted COVID, the leftists were practically dancing in the streets looking forward to his imminent death. These people are so stupid they don't seem to realize that on average over 99.7 percent of all people that contract COVID will easily survive it. I have now had the virus twice, around two years apart, and survived both times without treatment and without vaccination.

Rogan faired even better than I did, beating back COVID in just a few days, most likely because he had access to ivermectin. The leftists and the media went into a rage after Rogan's easy recovery. Instead of admitting defeat and admitting that vaccines are not necessary when dealing with COVID, they attacked Rogan's method of treatment, accusing him of spreading medical misinformation and promoting "horse paste" (ivermectin) as a treatment. To clarify, Rogan is living proof that easy treatment of COVID is possible, and this made the left angry enough to spread lies about him and his treatments.

During his debate with Sanjay Gupta, Rogan annihilated CNN's assertions on ivermectin and treatment for COVID in general. Remember, Gupta is CNN's top medical correspondent, Rogan is not a doctor at all, yet Rogan wiped the floor with Gupta because the leftists have no leg to stand on when it comes to COVID. When the debate ground is fair and these people have to actually defend their claims based on facts and evidence, they lose every time.

Multiple studies have now been released which prove that ivermectin is a safe and effective treatment for COVID, greatly reducing the number of hospitalizations and deaths. But, because leftists and the establishment only want vaccinations, millions of lives have been lost that could have been saved. What this shows is that leftists do not actually care about saving lives, they only care that people submit to their agenda. The COVID vaccines represent public fealty to leftist authority, and that is all that matters.

Leftists are now trying to save face after their embarrassment on Joe Rogan's podcast, not by admitting they were wrong about ivermectin or beating Rogan in an honest debate, but by trying to get him removed from Spotify. Once again, the leftists turn to censorship because they fear direct confrontation. They accuse Rogan of putting lives at risk through medical misinformation, but they will never be able to actually show any evidence that Rogan has misinformed anyone on COVID.

There is even less logical support for the vax mandates, which are designed to force people to accept vaccines through coercion. Leftists claim this is not force because they believe force only entails holding a gun to someone's head. This is not reality. Force also includes taking away people's rights and removing them from the economy. It includes making people's lives miserable until they "choose" to comply.

Finally, the biggest leftist lie when it comes to COVID is the claim that unvaxxed people are a threat to everyone else, and they have no right to put other people at risk. Again, you will never see leftists try to defend this moronic claim in a fair debate forum because it cannot be supported.

This is the reality leftists and the media do not want to talk about. Vaxxed people are just as likely to transmit the virus to others. Vaxxed people are just as likely to contract COVID as the unvaxxed. Vaxxed people still end up in ICU and still die from COVID, and some state numbers indicate that vaxxed people are more likely to die from COVID.

To summarize, vax mandates are criminal. Leftists cannot defend them on scientific or legal grounds. Their only option is to silence anyone who has the guts to talk about the truth. They are weaklings with no reason in their heads, and these are the types of people that always turn to mass censorship as a tool to legitimize their ideals.

To truth and knowledge,

SIDEBAR

It's hard to imagine a prepper without some emergency candles. It's literally one of the first things you buy when scrambling to prepare for a hurricane or some other looming disaster.

My mother had a drawer full of long white candles. The only problem with those is they only lasted about six hours and it was easy to knock them over. A much better solution is the famous "100 Hour Candle."

There are some great options on Amazon, but if you want to spend a fraction of the price, you should consider making your own. It's a lot easier than you might think...

Biden Admin To Fund Crack Pipe Distribution To Advance ‘Racial Equity’

Have you had enough of Joe Biden and his disastrous presidency? I know I have. 

From his ill-planned decision to abandon Afghanistan, getting American heroes killed in the process, to the constant rise of inflation and mandates that oppress our freedoms, it’s high time we said enough. 

And to do just that, we are passing around a petition.

Basically, if you sign it, you agree that Biden is only hurting our country and that we can’t stand by and let that continue. It says that because of his complete lack of courage and willingness to do what is right, we are officially done with him

Should it get signed by enough US citizens, we could accomplish our goal of kicking him out of office. 

Help us achieve that by signing the petition to impeach Biden today.

I wonder if mainstream morons either ignore or are unaware of the crap social media and idiots like CNN, NYT, WAPO, etc. pull; there seems a lot sheeple out there.

Former Democratic Congresswoman from Hawaii, Tulsi Gabbard, told Sean Hannity that she worries about the future of free speech and liberty in the United States as the Biden administration grows increasingly aggressive in its pursuit of political censorship.

She said, “[I] think that’s what is personally so troubling to me about these threats and attacks on our freedoms that are rooted in our Constitution, that are rooted in our identity as Americans.”
