Switzerland Goes to War Against Free Speech: Man Jailed for Claiming that Skeletons Reflect Gender

The case is only the latest example of how free speech is in a free fall in Europe. I spoke in Berlin at the World Forum, where European leaders gathered in one of the most strikingly anti-free speech conferences I have attended. This year’s forum embraced the slogan “A New World Order with European Values.” That “new world order” is based on an aggressive anti-free speech platform that has been enforced for years by the European Union.

Google Tells All on Biden Admin.’s Digital Censorship Pressures against Conservative Critics

“The committee’s oversight has revealed that YouTube, a subsidiary of Alphabet, was a direct participant in the federal government’s censorship regime.

Welcome to the Land of the Free… Until You Express an Opinion

This book also shines a light on the agenda behind the bullshit. It’s no accident that almost every government in the world has turned on its citizens at the same time.
