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.

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...

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.
