So who wants to live in a totalitarian world where you are not told the truth just what you should or should not say?

@Alienbeing obviously does - he joins history's long list of like minded:
The mythical Colonel Blimp who wanted to maintain a class society in the UK where the "oiks" knuckled their foreheads in undeserved respect to him, Pol Pot who just had the children go round & crush the skulls of the educated & intelligent with agricultural hoes, In the 23 years (1885-1908) Leopold II ruled the Congo he massacred 10 million Africans by cutting off their hands and genitals, flogging them to death, starving them into forced labour, holding children ransom and burning villages. The ironic part of this story is that Leopold II committed these atrocities by not even setting foot in the Congo (remind you of USA and Ukraine?) [usafrikagov.com].

Remember the brave words of Martin Niemöller
[en.m.wikipedia.org]...

First they came …" is the poetic form of a 1946 post-war confessional prose by the German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984). It is about the silence of German intellectuals and certain clergy—including, by his own admission, Niemöller himself—following the Nazis' rise to power and subsequent incremental purging of their chosen targets, group after group. Many variations and adaptations in the spirit of the original have been published in the English language. It deals with themes of persecution, guilt, repentance, and personal responsibility.
The best-known versions of the confession in English are the edited versions in poetic form that began circulating by the 1950s. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum quotes the following text as one of the many poetic versions of the speech:

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

A longer version by the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust, a charity established by the British government, is as follows:

First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew

Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me

Sadly they all forget to mention the persecution of the mentally challenged & ill, the homosexuals, the other non Aryan races and the Roma & Sinti. All of whom are still being discriminated against today.

"Editor Joe Lauria addressed the 54th annual PEN International Writers for Peace Committee meeting in Bled, Slovenia last Thursday on the subject of growing censorship in the West.

Because of time limits imposed by the conference, Lauria’s remarks were not delivered in full. The complete text of his remarks is provided. Uroš Lipušcek, a prominent Slovenian television reporter and author who was a Washington and U.N. correspondent, also spoke out at the conference on the repression of press freedom in Europe and the United States during the Ukraine war. The video of his remarks follows."

Alien and many others who are safety slaves to the system have been indoctrinated and programmed all their lives. They don't know the freedom of a strong independent individual who are able to think for themselves and be over all responsible..In order to make their own sacrifice of what they want out of life. Rather than always sacrificing they lives for their dictatorship hierarchy owners. Owners who will not ever give a flying FUCKERY FUCK about Alien and all the other slaves, , at all. Alien may as well delusion himself that he is well being than the rest of us. He delusion himself to be superior being from another planet. Where in reality he taken in by billionaire energy vampires, wail sucking his own brains out and replacing it with their BS shit. Just so he can join the a flaming asshole club and shit on everyone else. Too bad, that he doesn't belong to our owners club, That sucks again
.

Please cite one fact to back up your absurd allegations.

Are you as stupid as your post indicates?

@Alienbeing

Report me to Biden's minister of truth and keeping promises. Stupid is, is what stupid does.

@Castlepaloma Yes, Biden is stupid, however your long distance observations need updating. The "Ministry" has been shelved, the suggested head of the "ministry" has resigned.

So much for your knowledge.

@Alienbeing

Doesn't stop the two top greatest scammers banks and Government trying every politrick in the book, it will be lots more to come. They don't want sovereign nations and individuals, these imperial dominant greedy bastards are not worth my time and high energy.

@Castlepaloma First, you never backed up a single thing you said in your original reply of 5/20. You never will because everything you said was nothing except the spewing of a vacant mind.

Second, when corrected about the "Ministry" your reply sidesteps your allegation and suggests the real probelm never was the "ministry". If so why did you ever bring it up. Don't bother to answer that, the reason is you have no clue.

You do nothing other than type meaningless garbage, truly meaningless.

@Alienbeing

To win 190 international sculpture awards along 47 years worldwide Takes a hell of alot of thinking and a balancing act and still thriving.

Your life is so predictable to read because your owners in-law and owners of you. Are all patterns easy to read on the wall system. I have my own independent and individualism you couldn't begin to understand because you don't have a desire to be truly free and live and let live. Your trapped deeply in the system of sheep and sheep dogs dictatorship. Good luck.

@Castlepaloma Once again, absolutly nothing in your "reply" has anything to do with the subject matter.

I do wonder what the hell "owners in law" is supposed to mean, however since I am sure any additional repies from you will be equally meaningless, you can keep that to yourself.

Buzz off creep.

Who wants to live in a totalitarian world?

A frighteningly large minority of conformists who are too frightened to think for themselves, and would rather self abnegate all responsibility for their own lives to the one with the loudest voice.

Such people's freedom can be bought for the price of the promise to give them someone to blame and oppress, a set of unbreakable rules and the right to act on their base instincts. For such freedoms this sort of people people will follow a charismatic war monger to hell and thank him or her for the privilege.

If you hear someone in authority telling you

"If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear"
"Trust your leaders, they know what is best for you"
"Might makes right"
"The strong must lead, it is the natural order of things"
"individuality is weakness conformity is strength"
"Strength Through Unity, Unity Through Faith"
"The "Will of The People" must prevail over the will of any number of people"
"One Party, one country, one law and order will follow"
"Freedom is not free, it must be imposed, and protected by force and subterfuge"
"Truth is subjective"
"Do not deliberately over educate yourself it will make you unhappy"
"Know your place and be content with it."

and other such sound bites, you are already lost.
