  • Jacques Baud and the EU/NATO Censorship Architecture

    If Baud, then we are all potential targets now! Jacques Baud’s case is mind-boggling. A Swiss citizen, a former NATO-, OSCE- and UN-related colleague and author who relies mainly on Western sources, has been sanctioned by the European Union. There is no evidence that he worked with or for Russia. His “crime” is interpretation: offering […]

  • Sanctioning Fever: The United States, European Union, and Free Speech

    At present, there is a pot-calling-the-kettle-black approach being taken by the European Union and the United States regarding the imposition of sanctions upon individuals deemed hostile to free speech. On December 23, the US State Department announced that it would bar five European citizens accused of spearheading efforts to pressure US tech giants to censor […]

  • Ragebait Governance

    Ragebait Governance

    Image information: “Trollface” by Me in ME is licensed under CC BY 2.0. Oxford University Press’ 2025 Word of the Year is “ragebait.” The term captures a defining feature of today’s information ecosystem: content engineered to provoke anger, boost engagement, and overwhelm our ability to think clearly. Fake news is a potent form of ragebait, […]

  • Racist and Mendacious Australia: Cowardly and Unethical ABC Under-counts Gaza Deaths

    The core ethos of decent Humanity is Kindness and Truth but this is grossly violated by the racism and mendacity of  US-, UK-, Apartheid Israel- and Zionist-perverted and US lackey Australia. War is the penultimate in racism and genocide the ultimate in racism. Australia has been involved in all 1950 onwards US Asian Wars, atrocities […]

  • Disinformation Isn’t the Problem: Government Coverups and Censorship Are the Problem

    Disinformation Isn’t the Problem: Government Coverups and Censorship Are the Problem

    What makes it possible for a totalitarian or any other dictatorship to rule is that people are not informed; how can you have an opinion if you are not informed? If everybody always lies to you, the consequence is not that you believe the lies, but rather that nobody believes anything any longer… And a […]

  • Technofascism: The Government Pressured Tech Companies to Censor Users

    Technofascism: The Government Pressured Tech Companies to Censor Users

    Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, has finally admitted what we knew all along: Facebook conspired with the government to censor individuals expressing “disapproved” views about the COVID-19 pandemic. Zuckerberg’s confession comes in the wake of a series of court rulings that turn a blind eye to the government’s technofascism. In a 2-1 decision in Children’s […]

  • Should We Obey Bad Laws?

    A guest on Judging Freedom, Dr Gilbert Doctorow, took a contrarian stance to Scott Ritter’s journalism work on Russia, which seemingly aligns Doctorow’s stance with the official government stance. Doctorow accused Ritter (starting about 21:30) of stomping across redlines that any person familiar with Russia should have been aware of. Doctorow didn’t specifically state what […]

  • Quixotic Regulation: Australia’s eSafety Commissioner Capitulates

    It was given top billing, a near absurd show intended to rope in content on a global social media platform, thereby denying all outside Australia access to it.  Because an Australian official had deemed a video too disturbing and offensive for Australians of ordinary sensibility (the standard remains opaquely absurd), the world’s citizenry were also […]

  • A Global Crackdown on Freedom of Expression

    According to a 2022 report by Article 19, an international organization that documents and champions freedom of expression, 80 percent of the world’s population lives with less freedom of expression today than did ten years ago. The eradication of basic freedoms and rights is partly due to the pervasive normalization of censorship. Across media platforms, […]

    Get Up, Stand Up, Don’t Give Up the Fight: Know Your Rights or You Will Lose Them

    If a nation expects to be ignorant and free in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be. — Thomas Jefferson If America’s schools are to impart principles of freedom and democracy to future generations, they must start by respecting the constitutional rights of their students Take the case of […]
