Censorship
Worlds Apart – Part Two
There are ongoing attacks on our fundamental rights – be these free speech, freedom of belief, and even freedom of association. Be it in the UK or Australia, the US or NZ, the dynamics are the same.
Anchors in a Sea of Chaos
The only anchor will be precisely what our rationalist Enlightenment society pushed to the background: loyalty to ethical principles even if it means losing whatever you possess in the world of appearances.
The Crime of Caring for Humanity
So complete has been the betrayal of our citizenry, now by successive governments, as to invoke the notion of treason.
Worlds Apart? - Part One
Events across the UK, and also more locally, highlight how fundamental rights are being consistently challenged. This is Part One of a two-part Substack looking at the concerning dynamics in play.
They Continue to Stifle Debate Over Immigration
All repressive and authoritarian regimes, from Caracas to Pyongyang, suppress speech. Rulers like Russia’s Vladimir Putin or China’s Xi Jinping cannot tolerate truth, as it can threaten their hold on power.
The UK Govt Threatens People, Now What?
It is beyond sad to see this once proud nation driven toward destruction. I hope I am wrong, but it is difficult to see how this ship can be turned around, and increasingly difficult to see how that will happen without more violence.
The People’s Court of New Normal Germany (Part Three)
Focusing public attention on what the New Normal ‘authorities’ are doing, not just here in Germany, but throughout the West, not just to me, but to many, many others just like me, is one of the only weapons we have to fight back.
The UK Riots and the ‘Misinformation’
Misinformation is new ‘the dog ate my homework’ for politicians and the media class.
This Undermines Both Trust in Media and Public Debate
NZME should not pick and choose which opinions deserve a hearing.
Project 2025: A Plan to Fix Free Speech?
In the current arrangement, Big Tech gets to keep their quasi-monopolies and the government gets to wield the threat of antitrust to ensure compliance with censorship requests. That cozy relationship needs disrupting.
A Tale of Two Freedoms
This is an outrageous and gross constitutional overreach by police. This cannot be over-emphasised. Police do not make the laws. They must stop all activity in this space immediately and delete all the data that they have illegally collected.
At the People’s Court of New Normal Germany (Part Two)
This is about the authorities prosecuting government critics like me on fabricated charges, banning our books, and censoring our political speech. Once a government starts doing that, the protections in its constitution no longer matter.
Don’t Believe Their Lyin’ Eyes
You’re not a right-wing conspiracy theorist: they really are censoring the news.
Carpet Call: The Imperfect Gift of Freedom
There’s no doubt that the left is out to undermine our freedoms. They’re coming for our churches, our schools, our faith-based organisations, our farms, our mines, our cars and, most of all, our children.
