If someone were to ask Trump what the square root of 9 is, he wouldn't know not because he can't do math, but because he'd think a square root is a genetically modified turnip! That aside, we've come to the sad and tragic point where the most direct way to discover the truth is to find out that it's been banned as hate speech! The spirit of George Orwell is probably having convulsions!

This is exactly why I have always opposed ALL hate speech laws, because it gives the government the power to decide exactly what "hate speech" is. Naturally, governments will ALWAYS decide that hate speech is any speech that they don't like.

"Congress shall make NO LAW abridging the freedom of speech." No law means no damned law, damn it. Justice Hugo Black, the former Klansman, was right about that.

The more they talk about "protecting democracy", the more censorship they impose

There was never a problem with misinformation….until the truth started coming out..

Now, they even had to invent the new term "MALinformation"..

That's the give away right there--what are we protecting through the use of censorship? It isn't "democracy". "Democracy" wouldn't allow censorship since freedom of speech would be one of its basic tenets. You can't protect something that doesn't exist by using a method that crushes basic human rights such as freedom of speech.

The truth is what topples empires and dictators in the end. They can't rise above it. That's why we have to keep using it as the effective weapon it is.

Britain used to be a bastion of free speech. Not just Britons but all kinds of people considered 'agitators' and 'dissidents' in their own countries found refuge there. Now..? 'Sir' Kid Starver would arrest and/or deport them at the blink of an eye. Shame on the UK police for their complicity!

"Kid Starver" is becoming less and less the PM the Brits want to have. His days are numbered, IMO. Time for a vote of no-confidence!

You gotta wonder what Einstein and other late great thinkers would have thought about our current era where our governments spread outright lies about the atrocities they commit and punish the truth tellers. I don't think they would have remained silent and left the disinformation unchallenged. We should do likewise. Our lives depend upon it.

There are millions of "Einsteins" out there. We just need to encourage them all to speak up and to help others to do so as well. Globalize the intifada--power to the people!

A good way to understand what is planned is to look at what the World Economic Forum (WEF) declares to be the main risks, at their annual summit at the start of the year

If you look back to the one they published at the beginning of this year, see " Figure C:

Global risks ranked by severity over the short and long term", on page 8 here:

https://reports.weforum.org/docs/WEF_Global_Risks_Report_2025.pdf

What was the biggest "risk" they declared?

- Misinformation and Disinformation

Which is exactly what all these psychos who assemble at the WEF have done this year, via the countries, companies and organizations they control. They have spent the full year, lying and attempting to mislead the public and twist the meaning of words:

For example, "peace" now means declare a ceasefire and withdrawal...while occupying people and mass murderering them. "Hatred" means pointing out that person A is killing person B. "Terrorism" means protesting against the state's perpetration of mass murder. And "negotiate" means pretend to talk to another person while attempting to assassinate them.

It is worth going through that list carefully, because of all those "risks" listed there, 9 of them for sure are a clear list of all the misdeeds of western oligarchy and the govenments they control. Only #2 "Extreme weather events" cannot be directly attributed to them - but even that they have clearly contributed to, by knowingly overexploiting the planet and destroying the stability of its natural ecosystems.

Here is the agenda for the WEF's upcoming meeting on January 19th 2026:

https://www.weforum.org/meetings/world-economic-forum-annual-meeting-2026/

You can be sure that as 2026 unfolds they will do the OPPOSITE of that agenda they have listed, and that when they publish their survey of risks before the meeting, THEY will be the perpetrator of all the potentilal horrors listed as the top "risks".

Thanks, Kojo, for your insights. Doesn't this say it all? "They (the WEF members) have spent the full year, lying and attempting to mislead the public and twist the meaning of words."

If it wasn't so obvious and Orwellian, I believe more of the public would have fallen for their new definition of "peace" as "war". They imperialists have certainly worked hard to get folks to think of a "ceasefire" is when one side can still fire on the other side that is obligated to cease firing back because of--HAMAS!

Now more than ever, we have to continue to repeat the truth, emphasize the truth, point out the liars and racists for what they are, and not back down no matter how they punish or threaten to punish us. Like the activists that took on Elbit Systems, we can't stop drawing attention to the empire's "war of disinformation" that has been declared against the people. Truth is our weapon and we must not be afraid to use it.
