The source of any problem you encounter in the public forum is more than likely due to some institution, agency, or bureau of government; bet on it.
Political commentator Kim Iverson writes ‘Disagree with government policy? Homeland security says you’re a ‘terrorist’ if you speak out’. The Dept of Homeland Security is on the lookout for people, including unconnected individuals, who spread “misinformation, disinformation or malinformation (MDM)”. Of course, there is no rigorous, let alone broadly accepted, definitions of MDM; they are to be used to proscribe speech unacceptable to government bureaucrats in the manner of Carroll’s Humpty Dumpty – ‘When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean – neither more nor less.’
Your iniquities of government convenience are spelled out in the just released 7feb22 Bulletin of the National Terrorism Advisory System. According to this document, you are guilty of such domestic terrorism, if according to the DHS or any of its cooperating agencies, your communications “sow discord or undermine public trust in US Government institutions.” The internet and blogosphere is therefore chock full of MDM and an easy picking for any progressive politician or bureaucrat.
And Iverson reports that it doesn’t matter if things change. “It was originally a conspiracy theory that there would be vaccine mandates. It was misinformation to say the vaccine doesn’t prevent spread.” Tomorrow Humpty Dumpty can change its federal mind and get you coming or going. “By issuing this bulletin they’ve effectively given themselves the freedom to halt any dissent they don’t like under the guise of ‘it could lead to violence.’”
And for those who want to confirm which political side is ALWAYS in favor of more autocracy, keep an eye on the sound of silence emanating on this from our progressives and their lamestream media. (H/T to reader)
[Addendum] One of our astute readers notified us of the latest bombshell in our president’s rush to destroy America and relegate it into a second-world socialist country (here) compliant to the establishment of the new global world order. The Heritage Foundation publishes the much read and respected ‘Index of Economic Freedom’. This year the US has descended to a new low on the index. In the categorical rankings ‘Free’ consists of the top seven countries. The next category is ‘Mostly Free’ in which the US resides at rank 25. (more here)
The more backward nations that would benefit most from increasing their economic freedoms do exactly the opposite. Their populations, ruled by autocrats and tyrants, are composed of overwhelmingly ignorant and under-educated people who have never had the opportunity to bloom and make their way in the world. It is a foreboding picture of what America will become as our electorate becomes increasingly ignorant and votes for politicians and policies that demonstrably lower our country’s quality of life – and the doofuses have no clue where they are taking the country. California, of course, is the poster child.
