Well said. Your commitment to free speech is evident in your substack posts. You never censor comments. That alone makes you the only Truther I have followed who I am 100 percent sure of not being controlled opposition. I knew Ezra Pound was imprisoned, but not about it being outside in the desert. I'll have to look that up.

Do you ever get over to Lexington? There was a bit of Orwellian news from that town I just learned, so perhaps you can check it out and report back here.

When I made my cross-country trip to explore history in 1997, the grave of Robert E. Lee and the grave of his famous mount Traveller, were high on my list of places to visit. I found that Lexington in June was absolutely lovely. I was very moved at the gravesite of Lee and Traveller. Now I have learned that Traveller's gravestone has been removed, and replaced with a plaque that does not mention Lee. What? How could this be? What would they put on it...gravesite of a Civil War horse that saw many battles? I tried to find the new plaque online...no luck. If you happen to visit Lexington, will you look at the new plaque and let us know what it says? This is beyond Orwellian. Also, the plaque noting the stable where Traveller lived out his last days, has been removed. I'm still waiting for Joan Baez to undergo her Struggle Session for the sin of recording: The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.

I appreciate the kind words, Kris. I am a civil libertarian. Free speech is essential in a free society. I don't travel much. I guess Confederate horses were racist, too. Thanks!

Joseph Heller

Catch 22

The novel’s protagonist, Captain John Yossarian, remarks:

"It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.

I will not let literature "go gentle into that good night"

Dylan Thomas

1914 –1953

Do not go gentle into that good night,

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,

Because their words had forked no lightning they

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright

Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,

And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight

Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,

Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

I am all for free speech. But error has no rights. And therein lies the problem. Who determines the truth?

But when one lets Our Lord Jesus Christ determine the Truth- all is well.

Last time I cracked open the Bible, it said that God made them Male and Female. If any changes had subsequently been forthcoming, I did not get the memo.

The Catholic League of Decency did a great job keeping the clothes on the women, but little else. I once saw a Movie "Sally and St Anne" where the ending was more steamy than anything in "Top Gun". The censors must have been asleep through that part.

The Catholic League of Decency might have censored movies about the Civil War being fought over slavery, or Abraham Lincoln that unfairly characterized him as being a Christian. That is the way to promote Free Speech, in my humble opinion.

America lost its moral compass with Elvis the Pelvis, and it has been a long slide downhill from there.

If the Trannies want the White House, they can have it. Just give me my dog, my cabin, and my fire in backwoods Americana.

If you put 20 trannies on an island and come back 100 years later, you will see some bones scattered at the summit.

If you put a man and a woman on an island and come back 100 years later, they will toast your arrival with some coconut brew.

God Bless America 1.0

God HELP America 2.0

Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us. You are our only hope!!

The Trannies remind me of the Shakers. The Shakers died out, but at least they made great furniture. Trannies permanent medical needs keep American medicine and drug companies viable, and I guess tattoo artists also.

WW: Your comment was very entertaining. "Put a man and woman on an island..."

Well, the HMS Bounty mutineers went to Pitcairn Island. Fletcher Christian and his crew of Englishmen and Tahitians with Tahitian women.

Years later when the island was rediscovered, only one white man remained and his Tahitian wives.

Later on it was found that the inbred Pitcairn community were a bunch of pedophiles.

I'm not defending trannies, far from it.

Humans are messed up.

I did not know the HMS Bounty was so ahead of its time. But in retrospect it does make sense.

WW: The HMS Bounty and its crew of mutineers are an interesting study in the psychology of mankind. I highly recommend reading about the mutiny on the Bounty and what became of the mutineers and also Captain Bligh and his shipmates who stayed loyal to him.

Bligh is an interesting man.

There are roughly half of Americans wanting if not demanding totalitarianism. (Many are upper middle class whites.) They' won't like it when they get it.

I keep trying to tell Americans that FDR was a dictator, and more successful than either Musso or Adolf. They can't accept it. They have all been fed on lies since childhood. Well, I take that back. The young ones were fed on a diet of clicks and empathy. So a lot of them have to look up 'FDR' to even know what I'm talking about. The ones "interested in history" (meaning they have watched a lot of corporate pap documentaries on YouTube) all say that "he got us out of the Great Depression"--which he didn't. He did everything he could to get another big war started in order to get the War Machine running again.

He certainly was, Benedict. I'll have more details about him in the next volume of Hidden History. Thanks.

The House of Reprehensibles, along with their fellow freaks and criminals in the upper chamber, represent the oligarchic swine, not us. The Bill of Wipes has long ceased to be relevant if it indeed ever was. There are no rights. At best, you have privileges subject to judicial whim and caprice, and believe me, those freemasonic tyrants in black dresses will far more often than not deny you your "privileges". They even blatantly refer to them as privileges in the court records. Jefferson said the 2nd amendment insures the other 9, but this is delusional as well because the 2nd, along with all the rest of them are barely acknowledged to exist let alone be honored. In the first decades of the film industry, it was not allowed to show a man and a woman kissing face to face on the lips. Now, homos openly cornhole each other on the silver screen. We've come a long way, baby! The fact that something as natural as hate, an emotion not an action, is consider more devastating and even criminal than actual crimes of violence like murder is total bolshevik psychosis. Control words and their meanings, control thoughts, control perceptions, control behavior. An Orwellian wet dream, the ugly, satanic reality of the Iron Heel. Some Supreme Court justice said many years ago regarding the 1st Amendment that it is the most extreme speech that needs to be protected. A nice thought but for a communist dictatorship, the U.S., it is a fantasy. As the government takes down the most "extreme" and "hateful" speech and publications, they will progressively target the lesser and lesser ones until they all go down like a row of dominoes and there remain no objections or dissent against their evil, lying, official narratives. I think all of the civil and constitutional rights lawyers, with a glaring exception here and there, have crawled into a hole. In truth, the vast majority of Americans love their chains and the boot stomping on their faces. Their reaction to the Covid, criminal hoax proved that beyond any doubt. Thanks for a smoker, Don.

You wrote a world class article, Donald. It's impossible to measure the true value behind free expression.

Censorship Is a form of Mental Tyranny. The 1st Amendment was meant to be a remedy.

In the United States, the most cherished right has always been the freedom of speech and expression; having it enshrined in our Constitution has not been enough, it must be enshrined inside each one of us as Individuals. From my experience, there has never been a generation that was willing to compromise it for any reason until recently, with the youngest generations; such as the millennial generation and generation “Z.” Censorship causes blindness, grows an inept population and gives the Parasitic Elites a tool to rot the minds of people not paying attention.

At this point, the Censorship they are pushing will not work, I estimate that way more of our population is now awake and able to see the deceptions of Information Embargo. The Elites have made us all aware of what they are doing; we are also aware of how wonderful the world will be without them.

DJ: I watched the Congressional Hearing on Censorship all the way through. The Democrats were very rude. They interrupted often. That Wasserman Shultz Congresswoman is mean. All she did was accuse RFK Jr. of being an antisemite.

The Democrats had one witness of their own. An all too common college trained black woman who I had a hard time listening to. She never answered the Republican questions.

RFK Jr. did a great job of speaking and defending himself while going after those who had censored him.

DJ: Great article. I'm 1/2 way through it. I've often asked my progressive woke friends, "What is the difference between 'colored person' and 'person of color'?"

They never answer my question.

Sure, we have a first amendment. We just don't have a constitution anymore. The DC Swamp runs the country using the communist manifesto, rules for radicals and the Marxist playbooks.

Hate Speech and Hate Crimes are of the same coin, and are basically what happens when people who grew up on television have to create legislation and manipulate voters. These concepts are childish and ignorant of human nature. They are the equivalent of an old ABC After School Special on Dealing with the School Bully. Or taking out the Bad Man of whichever country the War Machine is devastating. Free Speech is a recognition of the age old truth that we can all be horrendously wrong, marching in lock-step to our doom, and that it takes a Fool or a Child to tell us that the Emperor is "literally like naked, Bro!"

“It's now very common to hear people say, 'I'm rather offended by that.' As if that gives them certain rights or special consideration. It's actually nothing more... than a whine. 'I find that offensive.' It has no meaning; it has no purpose; it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that.' Yes, well, so fucking what."
