I’m puzzled by the tolerance shown towards the criminal Trump regime. The rule of law and democratic norms have no meaning for Trump and his cronies. His regime is now killing Americans in plain sight. Has God deserted America or has America deserted God?
American farmers be like, “this is what I voted for”. 🥴
Is the NAR the anti Christ?
Charlie Kirk’s murder echoes Horst Wessel’s death: both martyred by the left, now symbols for right-wing causes. Propaganda tools, forever etched in political narratives
I have canceled ABC and Disney
Not quite a Fascist regime whilst threads of opposition remain but the trend is certainly in that direction.
Donald Trump is a national populist with autocratic tendencies. tax cuts and border security, resonate with the masses, but his governance leans towards centralized control. He empowers his base while consolidating power. Let’s call it what it is: a populist autocracy.
Both left and right weaponize hate speech laws to suppress opposing views, stifling genuine dialogue. This misuse of legislation is a dangerous precedent, threatening the very foundation of free speech. We must resist these tactics and champion open, honest discourse, even if it offends.
Trump and his administration are enemies of free speech. Their actions silence dissent and manipulate truth. It’s time to stand up for open dialogue and resist their censorship.
The right to offend is the cornerstone of free speech. It’s not about being offensive for the sake of it, but about ensuring that no idea, no matter how unpopular, is silenced. When we censor to avoid offense, we censor truth. Let’s defend the right to challenge, to provoke, and to speak freely.
ABC’s decision to pull “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” off the air indefinitely is a stark reminder of the ongoing assault on free speech and political satire. Kimmel’s comments about the tragic death of Charlie Kirk and the subsequent political maneuvering were “fair comment” and a necessary critique
When Charlie Kirk was assassinated, so was democracy www.theaustralian.com.au/inquirer/whe...
The outpouring of ugliness since Kirk’s murder is demeaning to the vision of America. Debate and resist but kindness and compassion are the hallmarks of a civilised society.
Violence is abhorrent and Kirk’s views were objectionable but there is no equivalence.
NATO-member warplanes shot down several Russian drones over Poland, the first time the alliance has engaged Russian drones over territory belonging to one of its members
