While watching and listening to the Biden team’s continued efforts to enlist Big Tech as propaganda and/or censorship tools, the only thing missing from their promotion of that policy, was the clarification that “it is the right thing to do!!” I was beside myself, immediately sat down and started this missive, for that announcement is in violation of our Founding Principle of Freedom of Speech, in every way.
Let’s start at the beginning. Freedom of Speech is a gift from God, it is a right that must never be taken away. It may after been an afterthought from God due to the issue in the Garden of Eden with Adam and Eve. Eve wanted to eat the apple; Adam was not sure. Due to the relationship between man and woman, Adam did not think it appropriate to speak his mind, even though he thought something was wrong. So, he remained silent to keep the peace within the family, and they ate the apple.
God realized the bond between man and woman, He created it. He also understood that people can be wrong for they are not gods. People can be persuaded, enticed and threatened with words that are false or words that are true, or a combination of both. God solved this problem by creating a God-given right of Freedom of Speech. Why? Because people can be wrong, very wrong and unless there is an informed pushback or even a false pushback, the people will never find the truth, and the truth is God. God provided the ability of man to say “You are wrong” to his spouse without any consequence…..
No government bureaucracy is always correct, or even most of the time correct. Over 90% of the deep-state elites live in Washington DC, the castle surrounded by a moat that is Interstate 495, if not mistaken, with 50 States outside the borders. How would they even understand the issues within the heartland, when they never venture into the heartland and listen to the people.
Frequently we hear the phrase consensus. How is consensus achieved, unless through a rigorous debate? How is consensus deemed possible, unless there is a search for the truth? Truth is all that matters. Truth will set you free.
Perhaps the first documented use of the phrase ‘truth will set you free’ was when Jesus was talking about God, his Father, the truth. Jesus was crucified by the elites of Jerusalem.
While there were probably hundreds of additional uses, Martin Luther King used the phrase to point out that we needed a discussion, a serious discussion to sort out the two worlds of the United States – the shining light upon the hill and the inner-city ugliness of despair. He was murdered by a racist.
Is there a great military leader who did not listen to the facts, guesses and thoughts presented by the top advisors? Would the victory at Yorktown, Gettysburg, Normandy, Iwo Jima and so many others occurred without a vigorous debate on what were the facts, what could be proven, what could not be validated, what was the truth?
The truth may only be achieved if there is Freedom of Speech. No one is right all the time. Courts throughout Europe laughed at Columbus for believing the earth was round. Galileo was warned by the Catholic Church to stop with the idea that the earth and other planets revolved around the sun. Throughout history, ideas and statements that are contrary to those of the elite are ridiculed with an attempt to silence. And it is happening today, right here in the Home of the Free!
The Constitution and the Bill of Rights were signed into Law when the country understood law. There were no bypasses, there were no exceptions. Former President Grover Cleveland once vetoed an aid package to Texas relieving the devastation of a drought, because the funds did not improve the ‘general welfare’ of the entire Nation. That should give everyone an idea of what general welfare meant then and, in fact, today.
Now we have an administration that proclaims the right to censure disinformation. What is disinformation? According to the American Heritage Dictionary – Disinformation is deliberately misleading information announced publicly or leaked by a government or especially by an intelligence agency in order to influence public opinion or the government in another nation.
It appears that the Biden regime has a different definition – disinformation is any statement or theory by the people that disagree with the edicts of Biden. Disinformation is not when the government claims “weapons of mass destruction”, “Russian collusion”, “insurrection on January 6th” or “there was no evidence of voter fraud”. Seriously, the Biden administration continually lies to the people and uses projection to claim that it is the people who are lying; classic disinformation!
The 1st Amendment says that “Congress shall make no law abridging freedom of speech.” Joe Biden is not Congress and he cannot pass a law without the presentation from Congress. No law has been passed, but is that the end? Back in the day, when government and people understood law, they knew that Congress holds the key to legislation. But today, legislation has morphed into the reality that every Executive Department in government, including the Presidential office, can not only make law, but enforce law and adjudicate law. It is a nightmare, that is the reality.
So, when the Administration reaches out and asks Big Tech to censure disinformation regarding the CCP China vaccine, that is problematic. The Administration is violating the premise of Freedom of Speech.
Ask yourself the question, did the Wuhan lab release the Wuflu or was it the wet market? Well, this week, the administration admitted that it ‘could’ have been the lab. But for over a year, Big Tech censured any and all articles and opinion pieces that highlighted the fact that the lab was responsible!
What else is true or false that we are not allowed to examine, to discuss, to challenge, to verify? It is called Freedom of Speech, a God-given right because even I am not correct all the time!! LOL!!
