Unveiling the Truth
The article discusses the escalating frustration of censors, who are now fantasizing about criminal penalties to end free speech. This shift in temperament from frustration to fury and calls for violent solutions has been evident over the past few weeks. This is a reminder that censorship was never the end goal; it was always about controlling society's "cognitive infrastructure," or how we think, to secure a monopoly on political power.
The Changing Definition of Disinformation
Recently, Fox reporter Peter Doocy questioned the White House spokesperson about FEMA funding migrants, while American storm survivors were left unaided. The spokesperson labeled this as "disinformation." However, when asked to specify the part of the question that was disinformation, she vaguely mentioned the context and did not elaborate further. This incident indicates how the term "disinformation" is being used to shut down unwelcome premises or facts.
Criminal Penalties for Disinformation
Hillary Clinton recently suggested criminal penalties for disinformation, warning that without such measures, "they will lose total control." This statement is intriguing, considering she is not currently in a position of control. Other political figures, like John Kerry and Kamala Harris, have also expressed concerns about the impact of free speech on government and the spread of hate on social media platforms. Physician Peter Hotez even called for Homeland Security and NATO to end debates over vaccines.
The Fury of Censors
The fury of censors is palpable, as if every post or video that contradicts their narrative is causing them to lose their minds. They are openly demanding an end to such dissent. The recent Hurricane Milton seems to have triggered a violent rage among censors, as people speculated about the government's role in manipulating the weather for political reasons.
The Power to Control Information
The ruling class wants to control the narrative and the information available to the public. They aim to turn the internet into a version of 1970s television, with limited channels and controlled content. The Biden administration has even refounded the Internet, replacing the Declaration of Freedom with a new Declaration of the Future.
The Desire to Suppress the Truth
The article draws a parallel with Tennessee Williams's play "Suddenly, Last Summer," where a wealthy widow is willing to lobotomize her niece to suppress the truth about her son's death. This is an analogy for the lengths to which the ruling class will go to prevent their illusions about the world from being shattered.
The Current State of Censorship
Currently, censorship is relatively low-grade compared to what the ruling class desires. YouTube accounts have been demonetized and deleted, Facebook posts have been throttled and banned, and LinkedIn's algorithms punish posts that contradict regime narratives. The goal is to close up the Internet and control the narrative, a task made difficult by the First Amendment.
Political Persecution of Dissenters
The political persecution of dissenters is one of the strategies being used. Alex Jones and Steve Bannon are examples of this. The Covid vaccine mandates and mask mandates also serve as tactics of exclusion and control, separating believers from non-believers.
The Final Means of Censorship
The final means of censorship is violence against person and property, with the ultimate goal of controlling what you think in service of one-party rule. Major tech companies and media are complicit in this. Only a few services are resisting this, and they are being targeted by the regime through various forms of lawfare.
Bottom Line
In the final scenes of "Suddenly, Last Summer," the truth about the son's death is revealed, and the aunt, who wanted to suppress the truth, is shown to be the one spreading disinformation. This presents the irony that those who fear free speech the most are often the ones spreading lies.
