The End of Democracy in Romania

Baiting The Left Freespeechers Great Moments In Socialism 10 Comments

A Romanian friend of mine shared this article with me:

A country cannot defend democracy by destroying it. Nor can it combat interference by becoming the chief saboteur. These are not paradoxes. They are the political reality of post-election Romania in 2025, where the will of the people has been trampled by a union of technocrats, foreign intelligence pressure, and judicial fiat. This is not democracy. It is an imitation of democracy, engineered for optics and controlled outcomes.

The gents at the Lotus Eaters have noticed as well that not all is alright in Romania.

So Ottawa is worried that Canadians have a lot of different opinions. In reality, they’re worried that many of these opinions don’t conform to the dominant collectivist narratives.

The presentation called on session participants to come up with ideas to make Canadian society more cohesive by reversing the trend toward polarization, building trust in government agencies and fighting the swelling tide of misinformation and disinformation.

Still, the document says officials at the November meeting planned to talk about how to ramp up efforts to “engage and ‘bring back’ groups veering away from democratic norms.”

Free speech and democracy are effectively dead in Germany. It has now become very clear that one must be a member of the UniParty or else you’ll be accused of being “far right” and banned from running for office. The gents at the Lotus Eaters are disgusted by this latest chapter in Germany’s history.

To save the German people from the totalitarians running their country, perhaps the American government needs to start tariffing Germany, say starting at 50% and then increasing by 25% every month until the amount reaches 200%. Plus, all German politicians involved with this fiasco against the democratically supported AfD, should be banned from traveling to America if this isn’t resolved by year’s end. After all, this isn’t the first time that America has saved Germany from itself.

Andrew Doyle- Iceland has abandoned free speech

It sometimes feels as though the woke movement has finally been derailed, and the world is gradually tottering back towards sanity. We’ve had the Cass Review, the recent Supreme Court ruling that sex cannot be changed with a certificate, Trump’s executive orders to uphold women’s sex-based rights, and various sporting bodies banning men from participating in women’s sports.

And yet a few strongholds are persisting with their regressive notions, most notably Canada and Australia. But Iceland might also be one of the worst offenders.

Deported ‘Maryland man’ championed by Dems was pulled over driving car belonging to human smuggler

More: During that 2022 traffic stop, Kilmar Abrego Garcia wasn’t just out for a joyride. He was transporting eight other individuals on a shady cross-country trip from Texas to Maryland. His excuse? They were supposedly headed to do “construction work.” No tools, no luggage—just bodies in a car. Sounds legit, right?

Blacklock’s- Will Censor Web “Pollution”

Liberals if re-elected will make a third attempt at regulating the internet, Prime Minister Mark Carney suggested last evening. Carney made the remark after being heckled at a rally in Hamilton, Ont. “We don’t need the online hate from the United States,” said Carney. Hecklers had questioned if the Prime Minister was acquainted with New York financier Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender who died in police custody in 2019.

“Come on,” said Carney. “Come on.” The Prime Minister paused briefly. “There are many serious issues that we’re dealing with,” he said.

UBC: Where Freedom of Thought Goes to Die

3 UBC professors and a graduate student are fed up and not going to take it any more:

A group of professors and a graduate student are taking the University of British Columbia to court to stop the school from engaging in “political activity,” which they claim limits academic freedom and violates legislation requiring it to be non-political.

The petition filed in B.C. Supreme Court Monday says the school is breaching the University Act through the use of Indigenous land acknowledgements, promotion of equity and inclusion initiatives and by taking positions on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

A section of the act requires universities to be both non-sectarian and non-political, but the group claims UBC is engaging in activities that violate the legislation.

The “W” Word

There are a few skills that are hard-wired into the brains of infants that are so fundamental, and so critical for survival, that they’re operative from the moment of birth — if not sooner. One of them is pattern recognition, which is how infants recognize their mother’s faces. Even the youngest child is capable of matching a new stimulus with an event that’s previously established in their memory, and alter their behavior accordingly. Of course animals do the same thing.

But a funny thing happened to pattern recognition, starting around the middle of the last century. Pattern recognition transformed from a fundamental feature of human psychology to something far more sinister. To paraphrase the author Steve Sailer, a “war on noticing” commenced.

From Climategate to Covid, Google neutered their once powerful search engine in service of a political narrative.

Since ChatGPT burst onto the scene 2½ years ago, Wall Street has wondered whether it was a major threat to Google’s search business. And with Alphabet Inc.’s stock now 25% off its highs, a Melius Research analyst is exploring that question with a bit more intensity.

Melius’s Ben Reitzes asked Monday whether Google is the next Kodak.

The Telegraph- It’s closing time for free speech in British pubs

Not only will they have to seek expensive legal advice, but it may mean employing “banter bouncers” to eavesdrop on customers and eject them if they say anything a pink-haired barmaid (they/them) might object to. Lists of banned words will have to be displayed on walls – “mothers”, “breast-feeding”, “woman” – and regulars may be asked to undergo unconscious bias training.

David Clinton- How the Government-Communications Industry Threatens Free Speech

Well they’re obviously not the same thing. But it’s fair to suggest that whenever citizen expression is suppressed, government speech is amplified. Which does make it that much more important for us to understand exactly what government is currently saying and how they’re saying it.
