In an interview, Bondi said "There is free speech and then there is hate speech." Then she said DOJ would be prosecuting hate speech. She had to walk back that statement due to public backlash, but the warning was clear. Americans must remain actively engaged to maintain their freedoms.
Narcissists consider the slightest criticism to be a deep wound and go straight into victim mode and begin gas lighting and blame shifting. That's what happens if anyone raises concerns about America's foreign rulers or its "master race." Look what happened to Charlie Kirk and how scared MTG is. It would be the ultimate narcissistic "discard" of the narcissistic abuse cycle if anything happens to MTG. The left tried to do a "reverse discard" on Charlie Kirk, blaming him for his own assassination.
It is good that Bondi walked it back: Both because she and others with power need to show humility and tone down their own hubris but also because there needs to be a demarcation line that has never been laid down. This mostly started when some porn creep millionaire sued about the law about 30 years ago(he was way worse than Hugh Hefner, can't recall name).
Although this was about porn it raised the issue how FAR can you go with FREE speech; Bondi reacted to the same basic issue regarding . . . what, MEAN talking?! Well, whatever. The point being that specifications and standards are the only thing capable of delineating how FAR.
Example of a possible "standard" of law governing FREE speech:
It is not legal to use mass media and PR to continually(more than twice) name any person, even those of high profile as a racist, fascist, Nazi, genocidic individual. Any two related or NON-related parties are chargeable. Penalty is immediate jail commensurate with the level of denigration. Level of denigration PRE-determined by a panel of 100 citizens randomly chosen in each state, but crime is a Federal crime. Level 5 = 20 years, Level 1 = 30 days.
Perhaps Keir Starmer is a Philistine Tyrant. I never met the man. His public persona reminds me of a weak man who is being controlled by others, too weak to push back and too self-centered to quit. There seems to be much of this in the public sphere in our day. Trump’s public persona comes much closer to fitting the bill, but even he would seem to have other rings to kiss, other nefarious hands to shake, when we see him next to the likes of Albert Bourla or Larry Ellison or Tony Blair
When I see Pres. Trump with the people you mentioned, I'm far from happy, but I'm hoping what I'm seeing is Trump TAKING WHAT HE NEEDS from such people & GIVING BACK VERY LITTLE.
If we truly believe in conversation ( “con” meaning with) then I guess he has to speak with the donor class oligarchs. He is certainly a step up from Biden/Harris but definitely not IMHO fulfilling his promises on stopping wars. The bombing of Iran, AND Satanyahoo’s bombing of peace deal negotiators that he had gathered in Doha and nary a peep about it in mainstream media, or his own truth social… DJT is wearing very thin on me.
You started off great Brian, except for the word “perhaps” used to denote Starmer, then the ten years of 24/7 propaganda from the Left against the Orange Ogre “seems” to have leached from your programmed brain about the Orange Ogre “kissing rings”, and then no amount of accomplishment or method used can satisfy the propaganda you absorbed about the Ogre.
Obviously it seems you still need to take your TDS meds regularly.
The Ogre’s method here is keep friends close and enemy’s (seemingly) closer.
To be the beacon of free speech means perpetual enemies, which means one must use the enemy’s cleverness to expose themselves entering the fold of the Venus fly trap.
Everything about the $70 Billion Pfizer/Bourla offering smells like sweet nectar to them as they enter the trap because they are blinded by the hubris of their propaganda, assuming they are more clever than the Ogre.
Think people, without your emotional ego, but with your unfortunate tainted faith that the enemy used to emasculate you.
Yet today’s wieners and wannabe’s of both the Right and Left whine about their platitudes, rail and rant about perfection and truth as if it were they on Bunker and Breeds Hills to defend Milton’s dialogue with Parliament.
TDS goes both ways. But "enemies close" and "5D chess" seem wishful thinking when there's clear evidence that what America First means to DJT isn't at all what he promised voters, but instead an administration catering to Netanyahu (whom many former Israeli leaders believe threatens that country's survival), Zelenskyy (penis piano player), Starmer (persecutor of Brits, protector of rape gangs), Bourla (cheaper poisons), Ellison ("we have to know everything about you so AI can better serve you"), Gates (fake meat, real man boobs), Graham (Miss Lindsay), Ghislaine (soon to be pardoned), Epstein (never had any list or clients, just likes blond girls, we wish him well, and anyone who questions that story is "dead to me"), and the myth of the Mauser stuffed down Robinson's jeans as he climbed the stairs to the roof. It's a Venus Fly Trap all right, seemingly for Trump's voters (got me all three times).
OH, GOOD STUFF -- WELL SAID. YES, INDEED -- KEEP YOUR ENEMIES CLOSE. MOST AMERICANS IN THIS EPOCH ARE UNABLE TO SEE ONLY SUPERFICIALITIES -- THIS COMES FROM TOO MUCH INDOCTRINATION AT THE EXPENSE OF REAL EDUCATION.
Expect him to point to the US and Jimmy Kimel et al as examples of where "free speech" needed to be limited. Ted Cruz will be feeling vindicated if he does.
Nobody had to do anything about Jimmy Kimmel. Lawful, free market mechanisms were about to get him off the air due to his own poor ratings. Kicking him off just gave him attention he didn’t deserve and made Republicans look bad, and rightly so.
True but there were a lot of hypocrites in the US calling for censorship and not calling it censorship. Americans are not very bright. They're brighter than the British but that's not saying much.
Two tier Kier, aka granny harmer/embalmer Starmer, is very much Bliars sock-puppet, beholden to him for many things including a huge effectively untaxable pension, and the WEF, not for nothing is he known as a DAVOS MAN.
If it was only the UK but it's going global. EU , US and yes Aus and NZ plus Canada. Not a single western state is free. The swiss are a bit maneuvering but will fall aswell.
The vaccines wipe out glands in the brain that create thinking. They have lowered the intelligence of the masses. They are the biggest scam ever perpetrated on mankind. They also affect emotional development, drive and ambition...and produce nations of sheep who are easily sheared.
His boss, Richard Tice, just returned from his obligatory trip to kiss the remnant of a Roman fort called "the Wailing Wall" and within a day proclaimed his support for Israel. "Reform" will be in name only...it will be business as usual for the world parasites.
I'm in the UK and I have to put up with them. My tax paying for their corruption. The sand art featured above is being "investigated" by the police. We did a parliamentary petition to try to stop digital ID. If more than 100,000 people sign it is supposed to be debated in parliament. Over 2.75 million signed and the response was - they're going ahead anyway, no debate, no vote. We have a compromised judiciary (Fabians all, I guess) who have sent over 30 people to prison for posting on X. You can steal from shops now, legally (up to £200), migrants are coming in and their dinghies driven back to France ready for the next lot.
If someone had said all of this would happen, back in 2019, I wouldn't have believed them.
Normies that go to work every day and pay their taxes intentionally delude themselves for fear of realizing their naïveté and lazy voting practice and lack of respect for their vote. That’s the first step toward self loathsomeness that matastisized throughout culture that causes men to become emasculated and their women fearfully fragile.
Sounds like you finally figured out the frog in the pot of heating water thing. By the time the frog realizes it’s not a warm bath, and he needs to jump, his legs are cooked. Hence the popular frog meme’s.
As if there was nothing to have a phobia (sorry, fear) about...
It's a very useful system if you want to have an obedient native populace, and you can use the new 'laws', why not, with 85 convenient 'courts' to do it in.
We are ever the guinea pigs, having always been under the watch of the Tavistock and unable to escape because of the sea ...though strangely the reverse doesn't appear to be true. We have osmotic borders. They know they can try it all out on us first before they do the rest of you. The blatant in-your-face nature of it with the new Home Secretary. Oof. Makes a person scared to call for STAHmer to go.
That's right, the evil scum at Tavistock even killed the real Paul McCartney in 1966 because he wouldn't go along with their LSD etc agenda...replacing him with "Billy Shears", an Illuminati member.
They were after him before the LSD. He was too interested in the Zapruder footage and Mark Lane's work on JFK, for a start, but there was a lot more. I'm trying to get my Paul book finished this month. (I started it about ten years ago but things keep getting in the way. I remember telling Nick Kollerstrom about it and him mocking me mightily at Mark Windows' house when I'd been working on it for a mere couple of years. Then he wrote his Billy book. Nick is fabulous though!)
But...WHO is really pulling the strings at 10 Downing St and in Parliament.
The UK and Ireland are smallish countries and the purposeful destruction is so glaring as to burn the eyes. There is an obvious concerted effort to bring down the west in general. Who are those that are really behind it and how are they garnering the control of so many citizens to cooperate in their own destruction?
Pretty obvious, when almost all the Western leaders following the same line were WEF acolytes. Indeed, Starmer infamously said he preferred Davos to Westminster. The WEF made no secret of their aim to destroy the existing system in order to bring in the Great Reset. But as you ask, why are so many citizens dumb enough to support their own demise?
A more recent British philosopher who is probably rolling over in his grave is John Stuart Mill. In Chapter 2 of On Liberty, he gives a penetrating and devastating critique of censhorship, showing that from every possible angle and every possible confluence of circumstances, it does far more harm to a society than any supposedly harmful speech, true or false. The only advantage it provides is to the party whose prospect for retaining their grip on power depends on them being the only one speaking.
Here is a review of Mill's argument, in the context of American censorship. The same argument applies to what the UK is now doing, and they are especially blameworthy for ignoring the unanswerable critique of their own eminent scion of political philosophy. https://markleone.substack.com/p/the-danger-of-safety
And the rest of (EU) Europe is also on the verge of censorship and surveillance in a way that is hard to imagine.
Coming next : The so called "EU Chat Control Proposal" - disguised as "child protection" ...
Votings in the EU Council to be held on Oct. 14 ...
If the proposal gets passed, doors will be wide open for government-controlled assessment, whether communication is "permissible" or not - depending on topics or standpoints or whatever...
It appears Marxist Carney in Canada is following Herr Starmer's example, saying his government will "protect" Canadians from naughty words on big American platforms. I'm guessing his main focus is X/Twitter but I would not be surprised if SubStack got swept up in his dragnet.
Why can't more people see this? Maybe they do, and they simply can't be bothered to care. Or maybe they feel they're already defeated, and that nothing they do will make a difference. Seems like this has been going on for millennia.
Most People don't want to know this . It disturbes their comfort zone. When it happens all at once they'll scream but it's too late. The solution is to become a self sufficient Hermit in the middle of ???? No place left. Game over.
I think the solution is to keep speaking out and pushing back. It's always the few in any family, community, business, company, government, etc. that does the work of the many.
Nothing can be done through conventional political channels. I have written repeatedly to my MP with well evidenced letters and always get back a letter that would disgrace a fourteen year old.
Oddly, the House of Lords seems to preserve a modicum of democratic debate.
The entire situation can only end badly for the people as those in power are deliberately stoking division and hatred. Britain is historically a very peaceful country. They will have more problems in getting us fighting each other than in many other countries. The reported "riots" were talked up by the media. They did not occur.
The lies and falsity of TPTB are becoming evident to everyone...I have spoken to "normies" and they generally realise what is going on.
Our political class is despised..they have no authority in the public mind.
I have a different point of view. Edmund Burke once said "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” Speech that incites murder is hate speech and evil and when we are no longer capable of understanding the difference and frozen in fear or apathy or an ignorant misunderstanding of the limits of alleged free speech from doing anything about it, we are doomed as a civilization.
Surely they did, but absent more specifics and leaving the wording so broad, allows us descendants wild inference and confusion. Hey, I am a retired engineer and certainly not familiar with the "legalese" required but know that when writing a contract for performance, a purchase order, etc. specific wording prevents later lawsuits and contempt. The very existence of the Amendments testifies that: "further clarification was required".
In MY opinion the Constitution was written by a large committee of divergent minds and energies and, while they endeavored to be pithy, eschewed further debate in order to finally reach a form all could endorse.
In their quest for completion this shortcoming only later has become evident to bite future generations.
Wow, RESONANCE Collective, you prove that SubStack is THE place to meet interesting, enlightened people. I thought I knew a bit about "Paul is Dead" (I have rad 4 books on this), but you put me...and probably even Mike Williams...in the shade!
Good thought, P-R O G, that has probably been done...but been "hushed up". The Beatles, Stones et al were ultimately controlled by The Tavistock Institute, London...while most of those well-known rock, etc bands in the US were created/controlled by the CIA & military...The Doors provide a classic example. Billy Shears is taller than the real Paul was...and he had to learn to play the guitar left handed. Billy is a more versatile, creative musician than Paul...when he joined The Beatles, he took them to a whole new level. And of course there was the influence of Theodor Adorno et al from Germany, who many think wrote most of their songs. "Oh what a tangled web we weave..."

You are living in a fascist country...same with the entire "Western" world.
crazy, I cannot even imagine. . .
Steal from shops up to £200?! like friggin' Kalifornia!
Basically this supports the elimination of civilized society as has been known for centuries.
Back to the Dark Ages, worse, before Abrahamic Law!
1,200 have been convicted of free speech.
Normies that go to work every day and pay their taxes intentionally delude themselves for fear of realizing their naïveté and lazy voting practice and lack of respect for their vote.

I have a different point of view. Edmund Burke once said "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” Speech that incites murder is hate speech and evil and when we are no longer capable of understanding the difference and frozen in fear or apathy or an ignorant misunderstanding of the limits of alleged free speech from doing anything about it, we are doomed as a civilization.
agree Mike,
We need legalese in the First Amendment expressing "standards" that say exactly what you state:
"Speech that incites murder is hate speech and evil."
Perfect example, to be placed IN the law itself: Charlie Kirk's death inspired by mass media outright naming him as a Fascist.
I am reasonably confident the drafters of the 1st Amendment thought at the time that speech that incites murder was not protected speech.
Surely they did, but absent more specifics and leaving the wording so broad, allows us descendants wild inference and confusion. Hey, I am a retired engineer and certainly not familiar with the "legalese" required but know that when writing a contract for performance, a purchase order, etc. specific wording prevents later lawsuits and contempt. The very existence of the Amendments testifies that: "further clarification was required".
In MY opinion the Constitution was written by a large committee of divergent minds and energies and, while they endeavored to be pithy, eschewed further debate in order to finally reach a form all could endorse.

This whole subject is beyond me. Never, ever thought Paul McCartney could be dead, killed by UK gov't or whatever. . .
Simple minded as my approach might be is this:
Can't his early albums be analyzed by voice print/ spectrum analysis and determine if the "print" changed over time vs Wings albums?
Good thought, P-R O G, that has probably been done...but been "hushed up". The Beatles, Stones et al were ultimately controlled by The Tavistock Institute, London...while most of those well-known rock, etc bands in the US were created/controlled by the CIA & military...The Doors provide a classic example. Billy Shears is taller than the real Paul was...and he had to learn to play the guitar left handed.
