TSOT135: UK Non-Free Speech. A Case Study. 25:24

6d ago25:24

25:24

A sign that supports the victims is apparently par for an argument of "breaching the peace" in the UK these days. I've told you, over and over, that alleged intentions for people to be nicer to each other by keeping their thoughts to themselves will only result in bullies of all kinds using those laws to ensure opinions they don't like don't challe…

The first official purposefully scheduled episode with DeMarcus. As we are both (native-born) Chiefs fans, we emphasize and spend a lot more time on that, but that game is at the end. We will tighten up, and already have planned for a tighter structure for the next episode. Due to length, we've added the convenience of time stamps below. But it is …

TSOT133: FBI: No More Will We Gullibly Believe Activist Groups Are "Watchdog" Groups 33:55

18d ago33:55

33:55

You can have a list of people and groups who do not agree with you, or who do not 100% support you. Sensible. But what that list is NOT is a list of who hates you. That requires more and would be a much smaller subset. Never mind that by even making such a claim you've basically proclaimed that what you hate is free speech. (Recorded before FBI's p…

Oh it's laughable at this point. An announcement by the administration, or RFK Jr. specifically, then gets lambasted by the media. This time about problems about taking acetaminophen too much during pregnancy. And then the most basic research shows its validity, and yet again undresses the Big Pharma teat-sucking "news media."
