Greenwald

 

Greenwald


Something on Bongino today validated ( I'd like to think it did) something that I've mentioned many times before.

Reagan's "Speech" declared that there's no right v. left, just freedom v. tyrrany. It would seem to be echoed when Greenwald said that the powers-that-be aren't concerned about the squabbles between the right v left, but in stability in their views.

It validates what I said because if the two squabbling entities were to ever unite, the powers-that-be would be in deep-doo-doo.

What to unite about? Common core values, which includes free speech. Greenwald is no conservative, but Bongino is talking a lot about his stuff. On the other hand, there are those who read Greenwald and comment saying that he defends Trump too much. You can take the leftie v rightie thing too far.

Since when did we start in on the notion that free speech is a bad thing? But that is what is happening. Those who are on the left are going to regret jumping on this bandwagon to suppress speech. Those who are pushing for the censorship don't really like you any more than they like Trump.

Bongino says freedom cannot be suppressed. It can be appealing as Reagan demonstrated. Look around and see what's going and see if you can continue to believe that suppression of your political opponents is that path you want to take. It can also be turned on you as well. But if freedom really is like the beach ball that is being kept down, eventually it will pop up again.
