The Swedish Government has decided that being allowed to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is more important than the right to free speech or expression.
Free Speech
We Are Not Saying You Can’t Get The Jab™ if You Want It
The politicized Left does this thing where they take your objection to something and pretend it’s absolute. They do that because that is how they operate, and they assume we’re like them. Not so.
OK, So US House Rep Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) is BARELY Smarter Than Her Voters.
Otherwise, She’s Right There with Rocks. Is that Enough to Convict Me of “Hate Speech Towards Minorities”? And I’m betting that bringing up US Rep Hank Johnson’s utterance that putting all the US Military on one end of Guam would make it tip over would be hate speech as well? And don’t get me started … Read more
Guy Whose Job Title Includes a ‘Harmful Word’ Admits, Stanford “May Have Missed The Mark” With Their ‘Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative’
Last week we shared news about the Stanford IT department speech police issuing a language guide. For the good of the community until they walked it back the next day (something about the backlash after the Wall Street Journal took it wide) /snicker.
Religious Intolerance at The University of New Hampshire (UNH)
UNH typically gets good marks from groups like FIRE for free speech that, in my opinion, they do not deserve. UNH may put policies in writing that sell a commitment to open and free expression, but the entire campus culture stands on the intolerance baked into identity politics.
Having Fun with the “Neurodivergents” That Created Stanford’s Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative
When UNH created its Bias-freeLanguage Guide, we wrote stories that went national. Then UNH President Mark Huddleston made it disappear and talked about the University’s commitment to free and open speech.
JP Sears: What Corruption? News Update!
The Marxists want to make sure you see them as the higher power, so happy holidays. That’s from JP Sears, who has an important ‘holiday’ corruption update for you.
A New Use for the Last Four Words of the Bill of Rights
What Happened This Year (2022)? When I scan the horizon, I am not looking for particulars. I am always trying to look behind the scenes. And since I don’t have a viewer to take me there, I rely on guessing what’s going on.
Don Surber’s Point #2: Normal Parents Reaction to Teachers’ Sexuality
Part 1 was the reveal by Don Surber, while letting the info drop that I’d been looking for some time (where did the policy on “Transgender and Non-conforming” originate?). But as I said at the end of that post, Surber also made another observation I think is important, one that I think all Normal people … Read more
Twofer: Twitter Twiddling and Russians Meddling
I had two thoughts to share in one post. Each is brief, self-explanatory, and connected, but I felt it needed to be out there or, at least out there, here! First, what do Democrats mean when they say ‘Russian’ Meddling?
Democrats in the Government “Admit” to Censoring You Online
No one should be surprised by this headline. We’ve all likely experienced this. The progs in Big Tech “take issue” with your content. And getting tagged, flagged, gagged, tossed “in jail,” or de-platformed by a “private company” is one thing, but what if it was at the direction of the Feds?
Failed Democrat Candidate Demands I Censor A Grokster Who Wrote About Her – Fat Chance!
It was Stephen Scaer’s post about Elle Gallo that got her “copyright demand panties” in a wad. Once again, we see that yet another “transgender activist” can’t STAND that someone has an opinion that varies from theirs. Go ahead and read Stephen’s post and then come back. I’ll wait… So now, having read Stephen’s post, … Read more
Free Speech Absolutism in 2022
So, Donald Trump’s Twitter account has been reactivated.
Because everyone should be free to speak in the ‘digital town square’?
No.
After Court Loss The City of Boston Agrees to Pay 2.1 Million in Legal Fees
Hal Shurtleff and Camp Constitution won their day at the Supreme Court in May. The High Court voted 9-0 against the city of Boston, which is now on the hook for Shurtleff’s legal costs and fees totaling over two million dollars.
Unions Help Southwest Airlines Police Workers to Purge Conservatives and Christians
If you are one of those #woke, vaccinated libs working at Southwest Airlines, you better be careful. While you might not object to your union targeting its own dues-paying employees on political grounds, allowing that sort of internecine surveillance will inevitably come back to bite you in your fat blue ass.
Will Anyone on the Executive Council Also Please Ask Judicial Nominees about Protected Free Speech?
I’ve recently received a flyer in the mail (attached) that says, “Reproductive Rights are on the Ballot,” but I can’t identify where, on my sample ballot (also attached), there’s any mention of “Reproductive Rights.” Is anyone able to assist me? More importantly, however, the flyer also promises me that “As your Executive Councilor, I [Ms. Kelly] … Read more
Someone Else is taking on SAU70-Hanover School Board Over their “Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Students” Policy
It has taken a while, but parents and other groups are starting to push back on school districts that include pop culture sexuality into their culture, activities, behavior models, and curriculum.
Free Speech Requires Censorship
Speaking about Elon Musk’s impending takeover of Twitter, David Kaye, a professor at the University of California, Irvine School of Law, had this to say:
Debra Altschiller is Not Very Good At Filing Campaign Finance Reports
You might know Democrat Rep Debra Altschiller for alleged attempts …to censor the press, hit an old lady, suppress free speech on public sidewalks, create speech carveouts for legislators to suppress the free speech of others, and just being an intolerable Democrat stooge, but now there’s this.
