Obama embraces censorship - the only way Democrats can survive | Eastern NC Now

the real attack on democracy

ENCNow

Hard on the heels of the defeat of the Biden regime, which free speech champion George Washington Law School professor Johathan Turley called the most anti-free speech presidency in history, former Democrat President Barack Obama has doubled down on supporting government censorship of speech.  First Biden and now Obama have sought to set up what George Orwell predicted in his dystopian novel "1984", a government "Ministry of Truth" where bureaucrats decide what will or will not be accepted as "true".

The Federalist has a good article arguing that the Democrats have to clamp down on free speech if they are going to survive politically.  The Democrats attack on free speech, one of the essential cornerstones of democracy itself, is merely a tool to retain power for them.

We do not need to move in the totalitarian direction of Europe, where clampdowns are free speech are pushing them toward a police state.  In Germany a pensioner was arrested for posting online that the country's incompetent former Finance Minister was "an idiot".  In France, a woman was arrested for posting online that President Macron was "a piece of filth" and a French senator was arrested for posting "immigration kills".  In Poland, a Catholic priest was arrested for calling the country's globalist prime minster a "traitor" in a sermon.  In Finland, a member of parliament and former cabinet minister has been prosecuted for posting a Bible verse online.  What is happening in Europe is little different from Nazi Germany or the communist Soviet Union.  We do NOT need that here.

From a clear eyed historical point of view, Barack Hussein Obama was the second worse president of my lifetime, presiding over a most corrupt administration.

The worst president, of my 3 score and ten, was Idiot President Biden, who was an incredible traitor to this Constitutional Republic, and we have paid mightily for his calamitous Non Presidency.

Hopefully a revised education system will help this nation foment a far more intelligent voting public.

Of course, Barack Hussein Obama needed the propaganda willingly offered by the OMG (Obama Media Group) to survive his presidency basically unscathed, so America's first Non Patriot President would absolutely benefit greatly from censorship.

Those authoritarian police state censorship laws in Europe are increasingly being used against citizens and politicians who oppose mass migration. I am sure the left would like to do the same in the US.
