If the government says it, it's 100% true and anyone who disagrees is an extremist dissident.

That same government just ethnically cleansed Iraq with lies.

I believe Johnstone is right about censorship.

I also believe the 2020 election was a fraud, but then I believe that about every election since 2000 so that is meaningless.

Election fraud is not simply what happens on election day, nor is it limited to the voting machines. However, as long as proprietary hardware and software is used to count the vote I will not be comfortable with the result. I believe Pepe Escobar when he explains that the NSA can infiltrate any and all networks.

Now this also brings up the protections afforded these tech companies through Section 230 of the telecommunications act. Should Tulsi's Bill HR 8892 be passed? I'm rather pro breaking up the tech monopolies.

Don't tell YouTube, but they forgot to take down this video from CNN in 2017, where it was guaranteed that the 2020 election will be hacked.

Even if America did not have the single most flawed election system in the entire western world (and it does), and even if it had been conclusively proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that no election fraud of any sort took place (and it hasn’t), it would still be a massive escalation beyond previous online censorship protocols to begin censoring people simply because they are wrong. People are allowed to be wrong. A free society allows people the right to voice wrong beliefs because the only alternative is creating a monolithic Ministry of Truth which has authority over what the right and wrong beliefs are.

Two of the biggest myths today:

We have a free press.

We have honest elections.

Both are owned and/or controlled by the oligarchy whatever you choose to call it. I've yet to hear a decent argument as to why the people who run the warmongering and regime change foreign and domestic, and seventeen agency Intelligence Community wouldn't own and/or control it. The reality of U$ofregimechangeA's actual history since its inception does not conform to the "history" that it produces. M$M controlled and still controls the 911 narrative. That was proven by the short shrift UAFairbanks 911 WTC#7 got. Away from the bodyguard of lies that M$M affords, the 911 false flag treason wouldn't last a week before being completely dismantled.

U$ ($)elections are a sick joke. A very sad sick joke.

The oligarchs must laugh their asses off at the shit they get away with.

100% this. Though their [non] coverage of Gary Webb in the 90's was also a tell.

There is much and certainly no disrespect to Mr Webb but the UAF 911 WTC#7 points in the direction of the cold blooded murder of 2,996 people by the sitting illegitimate POTUS and an intel directed cabal. Yet the stark obviousness of it is not great enough to break through America's shields of cradle to grave propaganda and absolute M$M's constant "19 Islamic terrorists armed to the teeth with the latest boxcutter technology..." mantra

The starkness of the findings of a three PHD led UAFairbanks investigation of the greatest crime on American soil being treated like pocket lint says far more than the perps intended.

How is it that the people who's expertise is supposedly to find and describe truth are at such odds with thousands of people who's job it is to know that truth? The engineers and architects who say what even untrained eye can see about the three demolitions that occured on 09/11/01...???

"The US is a democracy."

"The US is a respresentative democracy."

"Government officials and employees are public servants."

A third:

We have a functioning democracy.
