The Suppression of Free Speech Has Close to Majority Support in America, by Paul Craig Roberts

Very few Americans exercise their free speech rights, so they are unconcerned if those who do are suppressed. From Paul Craig Roberts at paulcraigroberts.org:

Almost every minute of every day I see overwhelming evidence of America’s collapse as a free country.  Elon Musk conducted a poll on whether Twitter should allow President Trump to use the social media platform. Fifteen million people responded.  51.8% of the respondents said “yes,” but almost an equal number 48.2% said “no.”  In other words, almost half of the 15 million social media users who responded to the poll oppose free speech for a former president of the United States.  https://www.theepochtimes.com/trump-will-be-reinstated-on-twitter-says-musk-following-poll_4874463.html?utm_source=Morningbrief&src_src=Morningbrief&utm_campaign=mb-2022-11-20&src_cmp=mb-2022-11-20&utm_medium=email&est=AaRJZFEv1VA7WZP8QIp6QI1XRNWDCCi2Csc7eZssLjYaXDJM4oN7iw%3D%3D

No doubt, being as indoctrinated as they are, they see Trump as a “pussy-grabber,” a Russian agent, and an insurrectionist and regard cancelling his First Amendment right as punishment.  Many of the same crowd want pedophiles to be relabeled “minor-attracted persons,” a step toward removing limitations on sexual relations between adults and children. They are content with the free speech right of pedophiles to advocate, but not for President Trump to express political views on Twitter.

In the case of Julian Assange, Wikileaks’ founder who published the leaked information documenting US war crimes and lies to allies, my headline doesn’t go far enough. A large majority of Americans, both Democrats and Republicans in practically equal percentages, desire Assange to be prosecuted for doing what journalists are supposed to do. President Trump and his Secretary of State Pompeo denounced Assange with the same intensity as Nancy Pelosi. https://moderndiplomacy.eu/2019/04/18/by-3-to-1-americans-want-assange-prosecuted/

One response to “The Suppression of Free Speech Has Close to Majority Support in America, by Paul Craig Roberts

  1. “What the Alchemical managers have bred over a millenia is a human race of the most wretched stupidity and ignorance unrivalled in thousands of years.
    These blind slaves are told they are “free” and “highly educated” even as they march behind signs that would cause any medieval peasant to run screaming away from them in panic-stricken terror. The symbols that modern man embraces with the naive trust of an infant would be tantamount to billboards reading, “This way to your death and enslavement.”

    Micheal Hoffman II
