Censors, Censors Everywhere - by Peter Venetoklis

Censors, Censors Everywhere - by Peter Venetoklis
  • Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) recently made the news by proposing a restriction on campaign spending by publicly traded companies...
  • Meanwhile, Congressman Mike Gallagher (R-WI) doesn't like that Tik Tok is propagandizing against Israel, and wants to ban it. 
...there is enormous peril in allowing the government to hush speech. 
None of us should trust a government truth squad not to weaponize its power in favor of one party or the other.
  • Last year, the Biden administration sought to create what was derisively dubbed a "ministry of truth.”...
The system isn't perfect, but no system is. 
Choosing liberty over government power is the better bet just about every time...
Indeed, there are millions who choose to close their eyes to stuff they don't agree with, but will any of them be benefited by having the government act as gatekeeper?...
