In Courageous Discourse substack John Leake writes:
"Ursula von der Leyen advocates "pre-bunking" in the public forum to "vaccinate" people against "disinformation"...
EU President Ursula von der Leyen just joined the ranks of
former Senator John Kerry and other globalist ghouls in declaring war on
that keystone of democracy, free speech by perversely proclaiming that the EU citizenry needs to be
“vaccinated against disinformation.”
Like every censor
in history, she characterizes her censorship program as a means of
expunging erroneous information and ideas from public discourse. By
using the word “disinformation,” she implies that she and her clique are
already the sole possessors of the truth about everything, and that everyone who has and shares heterodox ideas is necessarily in error.
Her entire premise is FALSE for the following reasons:
1).
Knowledge about the world is constantly evolving through constant
inquiry, discussion, and dissemination. Knowledge is NOT a static thing.
This is why countries with stifling censorship regimes have experienced
intellectual, scientific, and artistic stagnation. Their rulers try to
freeze the human mind in its state at their moment in history.
2).
NO state, university, or ecclesiastical committee has ever been in
possession of the full truth of any matter. Official orthodoxies have
always been challenged by heterodox thinkers. Indeed, virtually every
major advance in human insight has been performed by heterodox thinkers.
3).
As John Milton observed in his 1644 pamphlet, Areopagitica, contending
with error is an intrinsic part of learning and discovery. We literally
learn by making mistakes and correcting them. If free speech is
suppressed for the objective of preventing the propagation of erroneous
thought—or “vaccinating against it”—it will become extremely difficult
if not impossible for people to learn and discover.
4). Without a single exception in history, the people who hold power always advocate the orthodoxy that sustains and extends their power and that of their friends and supporters.
Ursula von der Leyen is the quintessence of this principle.
As
president of the EU, she conducted secret negotiations with Pfizer CEO
to purchase a 20 billion Euros of Pfizer’s fraudulent and dangerous
vaccine so that it could be inflicted on all the citizens of the
European Union.
She is currently under criminal investigation for her conduct in this affair that has come to be known as Pfizergate.
It
takes a special kind of chutzpah for a powerful state official who is
probably guilty of committing a major crime - a crime that has been systematically and ruthlessly concealed - to lecture the public about the need for censorship.
“We’re
not just battling the virus,” said WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom
Ghebreyesus. “We’re also battling the trolls and conspiracy theorists
that push misinformation and undermine the outbreak response.” Misinformation? That the vaccines don't work?
Proliferating
misinformation — even when the content is, in a best-case scenario,
harmless — can have serious and even social and lethal health
ramifications in the context of a global pandemic the WHO, backed by national governments and mainstream media told us before reiterating the lie that "The vaccines are 100% safe and effective."
In some countries it was alleged in WHO reports, rumours about impending food scarcity
prompted people to stockpile supplies early on in the epidemic and
caused actual shortages. In the United States of America, a person
passed
away from ingesting a fish tank cleaning product containing
chloroquine after reports mentioned hydroxychloroquine as a possible -
yet unproven - remedy for treatment of COVID-19. In the Islamic
Republic of Iran, hundreds died after drinking methanol alcohol that
social
media messages said had cured others of the coronavirus. This is the
kind of dangerous misinformation that WHO is most worried about.
While worrying about such scare stories for which little or no evidence was ever presented, the WHO, in the name of banishing misinformation was urging governments to ban long established and provenly safe drugs like Ivermectin and hydroxchloroquine (previously known as quinine,) on the grounds that they were unsafe and ineffective. Before being found by doctors to be far more effective than the mRNA vaccines, both these drugs had been recommended by the WHO as safe and effective remedies for various viral illnesses.
It was the WHO, the EU, the United Nations and national governments that spread misinformation and disinformation in order to scare and coerce members of the public to accept an improperly tested and highly suspect vaccine.
Misinformation in the form of scare stories bades on fraudulent data has also proliferated in conntion with climate change, wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, talk of the 'next pandemic', and so on.
The wise work on the assumption that all information released by government, big business and those Non Government Organisations, unelected bodies like the World Economic Forum that have somehow gained influence over government policy and are busy advancing their globalist agendas, is untrue or at best only contains just enough truth to give it some credibilility. This is why they are so eager to silence the voices that question their narratives.
Sorrty Ursula but it's you that is a kind of infectious disease.

This weeks main story, pushing Coronavirus aside at last, has been the attempt by Twitter to censor U.S. President, classifying his somewhat rabid tweets as misinformation.

Facebook Declares War On Free Speech
Facebook has for some time had a policy of removing text that the majority of people would consider racist. Now the social media site is now deleting and blocking comments that only one person at Facebook decides is "racist." The sinister, Orwellian reality of a society in which the expression of majority opinion is being turned into a crime has already been witnessed across Europe. Even more disturbing, social media operators such as Facebook and Twitter appear to be collaborating with governments in the suppression of free speech.

Threats to Free Speech
Threats to free speech and other civil rights us ordinary punters fought and shed blood for are under threat, not from the extreme right but from the liberal left. The intellectually bankrupt lefties have realised their hundred year old arguments are never going to win the battle for hearts and minds and so have moved to the position in the political spectrum once occupied by Hitler and Stalin. Many people would never dream of questioning authority; others see their interests as being served by supporting the abuse of authority, they are the ones who call the questioners 'conspiracy theorists'.
Threats to Free Speech
Is Free Speech Being Murdered By The Media And Politically correct Left Wing Activism
There can be no doubt, the right of citizens in the developed world to free speech, free access of information and freedom to express ideas is increasingly under threat as the power elites feel their grip being loosened by increasingly well informed and articulate working and midddle classes. Without any apparent sense of irony the advocates of big government and controlled media call themselves 'the left' as though their opponents are not bright enough to know that free speech is one of the foundations of classical liberalism and the suppression of free speech is a hallmark of tyrants.

The Self Righteous Minority That Threaten Free Speech
Until recently Universities were places where any ideas were welcome and any economic, social, or scientific theory, no matter how extreme would be given a fair hearing and debated openly. So where did it all start to go wrong? How did the idea that there is only one set of acceptable answers to society's problems (the 'pensƩe unique' to use a French phrase I am fond of, redolent of The Borg in Star Trek and much more demeaning than "Social Justice Warriors") and that those who challenge the orthodoxy should be silenced and prevented from broadcasting their ideas in print or verbally.

The Imporantance Of Free Speech And The Right To Offend
Our right to free speech is under threat from intolerant, authoritarian left wingers or 'progressives liberals' as these illiberal reactonaries like to style themselves. The 'Politically Correct Thought Police' as I have somtimes called them in acknowledgement of Geoge Orwell's novel '1984', are determined that in they egalitarian dystopia they dream of (but that fortunately could never be) nobody will be able to say or do anything that may offend s member of any racial, sexual or social minority. This kind of fascistic tyranny is justified by invoking politically correct ideals, but it is having a deeply damaging effect on human society and could eventually result in civil conflict in the developed nations.

Free Speech being superseded by Sharia Law in Germany?
In Germany, where the open doors immigration policy insisted upon by Chancellor Merkel has flooded the country with Islamic fundamentalists, Christian activist
Heidi Mund was recently charged with “agitation against the people” for speaking our on aspects of Muslim Sharia Law that are unacceptable in western societies (e.g. permitted wife beating, rape, forced marriage.Germany is sliding towards fascism as Hausfrau - Volksfuhrer Merkel outlaws free speech for Christians. All criticism of Islam and discussion of Muslim crimes is hate speech it seems, but the ranting of Islamic hate preachers as they call on Muslims to kill all infidels is acceptable rhetoric.

We reported several weeks ago that the French government was planning a clampdown on conspiray theories by shutting down certain dissident websites. Since then we have learned the French government have shown they are prepared to go even further in attacking citizens right of free speech, they are now shutting down sites that question the government's ability to deal with the immigration crisis, the problem of Islamic extremism, the country's dire economic situation or burgeoning unemployment.

It is surprising in view of what we now know about the collaboration between internet technology corporations and government security agencies that many people still think og the internet as a bastion of freedom. This page shows how easy it is for governments and corporations to censor web content. Fortunately there are plenty of libertarians out there (we classical liberals have to call ourselves libertarian since the new, politically correct Stalinists hijacked the word liberal) who will help you find the stuff governments don't want you to see.

Google, Facebook and Twitter Yield to German Govt Demand to Censor Anti-Migrant ‘Hate Speech’ (aka Free Speech)
Anyone in Germany appalled by the scenes we in New Media described however, will find it difficult to express their disgust online because it will be branded as hate speech by the Berlin political class. Major social media sites have said they would work to delete any German anti-migrant sentiments distributed on their networks within 24 hours after a removal request has been made. In fact the Jewish Quisling Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facistbook, has committed his organisation to working with governments to suppress all discussion that does not comply with the dictum of political correctness.

What must be understoof by all is that “Tommy Robinson’s grievances” are not just his, they are shared grievances, but, a bit like Jack Cade and Robert Kett perhaps, his courage and willingness to speak out have made him a “representative” for a considerable number of fed up British people. There seems to be an implied doubt in the article as to this reality.
The riots this summer were in response to a violent attack on little children, whether any or all of those rioters were racists is pretty much beside the point, racism seems to be endemic in the UK today; the anti-white racism of BLM and CRT, the antisemitism of Hamas followers, anti-muslim, it’s everywhere
The government needs to face up to the fact that as a society we have failed and are failing to keep the peace. There needs to be a different approach.
There is a fundamental fact that gets forgotten in immigration debate. We are supposedly living in a democracy the last timeI looked. Did anyone ask the people of the UK if they wanted mass migration into the country? I do not recall having been consulted. This crisis was entirely created by politicians. It is little wonder that the nation has lost faith politics. And now those same politicias, having wailed and gnashed their teeth for years about the threat from 'The Far Right' have handed the nearest thing we have to an organised right wing populist movement in Britain a martyr whose cause those protesters can rally to.
