Listen to This Article: Report on the Censorship-Industrial Complex
Thoughts: I was once a lefty antiwar sixties-seventies Democrat. I am 73. I have now decided that the problem is more the Democratic party than the Republican party. Why? Because the Republicans loathe government, and the Democrats celebrate it. BUT and this is the key, the Democrats like government, however they never or very rarely use government for anything but watered down, fooled you, snookered you, bamboozled you.... Good. Instead, they champion government for bad things, like Hilary, and Bill, and Obummer, and War, and blowing up pipelines and all the policies championed by their renewed, recycling member, and former member, Neocons. People like, David Frum etc, and Madeleine Albright... Warmonger women like Hillary and Victoria.
Yep, the liberals and "the left"(who I am way to the left of) prefer doing little good and lots of bad with the government they champion. It should be the other way round. From my seat, an Anti-War sixties Democrat should never support today's Democratic party.... The Democratic party went FIRE sector, Warmonger, bring on censorship of the Deplorables, and anyone else we dislike or don't trust, a long time ago.
I view Biden as unfortunate, never worthwhile, rarely honest, and now a potted plant! And the president who will go down in history as doing more damage to the Nation than any other since, at least, WW2 and perhaps since Reconstruction. He is the conductor of the Fall Apart Symphony.
Long ago, around 1980, a man named Francis Schaeffer defined a cabal (without naming it as such) consisting of the education systems, "news" systems, and entertainment systems where the members lived below a "line of despair." Their beliefs caused them to see their fellow humans as things. The Censorship-Industrial Complex adds to Schaeffer's cabal the federal bureaucracy, the military, the federal police and the political parties. He implied at the the time, this shared dehumanizing worldview would expand and it appears he was right.
