“Censorship Killed Millions. Free Speech Saves Lives”: Celebrating the Return of Dissenting Voices to Twitter

Voltaire, the clearest of Enlightenment thinkers, wrote in 1765: “Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.”
250 odd years later, these words resonate possibly louder now than they did then. Controlling ‘the Narrative’ via propaganda and suppression of dissent has always been central to enacting tyrannical measures, but never before have those in power had at their disposal such potent levers of ubiquitous modern technology and communication to enforce global censorship.
As the world begins to wake up to the devastating effects of the past three years surrounding the emergence of COVID-19 and the response measures enacted by our governments, it is now beyond doubt that this censorship has cost the lives and livelihoods of millions of people across the globe…
It really is mind boggling that govts around the world stooped to BLACKMAIL by threatening any medical professional with being deregistered or worse for speaking out against this shit vaccine. I hope the situation gets better next time, but I doubt it.
I often think what kind resistance a 12th century Mongol warrior would put up if you tried to force him to do something he did not want to do. Of course the world is very different now because we exist in a soup of propaganda and we make our truths out these lies. But I feel like we should return to validating our world through our own individual senses.
