Hey there,

The institutions controlled by the Left continue their authoritarian onslaught on free speech in America. 

 

Last week, YouTube demonetized biologist and podcaster Bret Weinstein's DarkHorse channels for discussing science that goes against the narrative they've deemed acceptable. Stuff like this happens every single day. 

 

Big Tech, aka "private" companies have been weaponized to perform the Left's bidding, to silence dissenters, and paint speech as violence. This is the greatest authoritarian threat of our time. YouTube demonetizes, Amazon deplatforms, Facebook limits reach and slaps on bogus fact-checks, and Twitter squashes the spread of information. Ultimately, you and I get censored for saying what they don't like while they hide behind sham "content policies." 

 

And yet all we hear from the media (another institution at the service of the Left) is that conservatives are the threat: Conservatives are destroying democracy with voter ID laws and Critical Race Theory bans and Trump was the greatest risk to freedom in modern America history because of his mean tweets. 

 

But make no mistake — it isn't conservatives coming after peoples' rights to speak and think freely. The Left wants total control. They want you to bend to their will — conform to their idiotic and anti-science pronoun usage, women: share locker rooms, playing fields, and even prison cells with men, and everyone smile and nod while they revisit lock downs and travel bans under the guise of public health. 

But I didn't write today to just sound the alarm on what the Left is doing — we've already been seeing these trends for years. I'm writing because I think there's something we can do about it. 

 

Our silent majority that opposes the Left's ludicrousy and cherishes American liberty has been largely apathetic — but there is a way to fight back.

 

We've seen recent victories with irate parents standing up to school boards regarding the teaching of Critical Race Theory. A couple of weeks ago, a bold woman caused a scene at an LA spa that allowed a "trans woman" (a man) to expose himself to women, including young girls, in a women's locker room. 

 

The tide may be turning! But this isn't enough. We need to wake up. We need more of this. The silent majority has to fight back.

 

I digress for a shameless plug: I actually go into strategies for this in greater detail in my newest book The Authoritarian Moment. Because to me, the most important part of this mess is how we stop it and change course to return to liberty.

 

We must reclaim our institutions from the Left. So let's keep standing up for our rights and fighting on behalf of our values. And if it would help you in this mission, pre-order my book today. 

 

I think there's hope for us to overcome this grave authoritarian threat, so we can't give up. Don't stay silent. 

Thanks for being here,
