Was Jimmy Kimmel Really Censored?
Now, the primal roar of legacy media echoes throughout the left wing, co-opting the slogan of free expression...
Free Speech
The Man With the Dezi Freeman Poster
At this very moment, politicians will be writing legislation that further empowers and emboldens police and the government to engage in state-sanctioned violence and further erode freedom of expression and civil liberties.
‘Hate Speech’ Is Not Real
Whether or not speech is ‘hate’ speech is totally subjective. What is one man’s hate is another man’s sensible observation.
The Right Response
The conduct of Charlie Kirk before his assassination, and the likes of Israel and Maria Folau, give us a good idea of how we should respond to the increasing challenges in society.
Violence Silences Lives but Debate Strengthens Society
If someone does not share these values, that is their right. But it is not their right to dictate how I live my beliefs, nor to threaten or intimidate me into silence.
Sam Stubbs: Free Speech Means You Can Say Stupid Things, But Not Without Getting Your Arse Kicked
Look, nobody’s stopping Sam Stubbs from yapping. He can rant about Kirk all day, every day. That’s the beauty of free speech in a free country like ours.

This Is the Enemy of Liberty
Debate is inefficient, messy, and noisy – but replacing speech with political violence risks shredding the fabric of society, and suppressing truth itself.
Paper Terrorism – Not a Thing
Fighting over language may seem trivial but it never is. The words we use to think and communicate are of vital importance. We cannot let ‘paper terrorism’ become the new scare campaign to take away more of our liberties.
Why I Don’t Care About ‘Charlie Kirk’ Sackings
“Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”
This Is a Warning About Civil Debate
New Zealand, like America, must decide whether we will protect the space for robust, respectful debate – or whether we will surrender to a culture of fear where ideas are met not with words, but with violence.
You May Kill a Man
Charlie showed that a true free-speech champion listens, seeks to understand, allows disagreement, and is willing to admit when they are wrong or have more to learn. And he embodied what it means to stand strong in your convictions and share your perspectives boldly.
And the Death of Discourse
To honor Charlie Kirk, we must not surrender to the darkness that took his life. We must keep speaking, keep debating and keep standing for truth, even when the world hates us.
