When leaders go down the road of thought crime it's heading down the road to dictatorship. Some people are allowed to think and others not?????



There have been many prosecutions for people saying what they truly believe is the truth.

It's the Thought Police from 1984.

Some people are allowed to think and others not?????

Some people are allowed to publicly express their views and others not.



We will be witnessing real dangers emerge, to our personal freedoms, imo,
when political and community leaders in a society of men, decide that the common citizen needs to be 'guided' [and censured, IN LAW], in which opinions/views can be publicly expressed, and which opinions/views are not 'acceptable' [to be publicly expressed].

[I oppose openly expressed direct incitement to violent acts.    I do not oppose the right to 'speak out' and warn of such dangers.]

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."
- George Orwell            [even if this quote is mis-attributed to Orwell, the pursuit of truth remains a great virtue]


"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear."
- George Orwell


"The further a society drifts from truth the more it will hate those who speak it."

This thread should be in the "Failed Comedians" board.

Mods, can you please move it.

What did he say that is 'failed', Turd?  Any particular thing you cite as an example of failed comedy? No.  You can't think, you can't argue - so you do a Bwian.  Roll Eyes Tsk, tsk.

This forum is ain't big enough for two idiots like you and Bwian.

Must do better, must use reason. One mindless Bwian is one too many already.





(what is it about you sand gropers?? why are you so stupid and insufferable in such large number per capita?)

QUESTION;
Should          open criticism        of persons who        OPENLY      express views like these [below]
be permitted [and protected IN LAW] in any society which describes itself as decent, and free ?
