I Stand For Censorship

I think it’s a good idea to immediately shut down dissent

Don’t listen to others whose ideas differ from yours.

Ignore all scientific data that doesn’t fit the paradigm.

Cancel authors, journalists, scholars, scientists, medical doctors, experts, and parents who say anything you disagree with.

After all, isn’t that what America stands for? Isn’t a core value of a free and fair democracy to censor its citizens?

Here are just three of the topics that should definitely not be up for debate or discussion. An echo chamber of groupthink on these issues is best, as I’m sure you agree.

1. Vaccine Safety

There’s no reason of any kind to question anything to do with vaccine safety, or the safety of any other preventative medicine for that matter.

After all, medical safety isn’t important.

So what that Stanford University’s Dr. Scott Atlas, M.D., has repeatedly raised concerns? Or that microbiologist Dr. Janci Chunn Lindsay, Ph.D., has called to halt the COVID-19 vaccine program?

And who cares that Dr. Robert Malone, M.D./Ph.D., himself a vaccine developer and a government insider, has been mining the data and coming up with very troubling post-market red flags?

Or that we now have 1,216,787 reports to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) about the COVID-19 vaccine?

I’ll say that again for the people in the back. One million two hundred sixteen thousand seven hundred and eighty-seven reports of adverse events directly following vaccination against COVID-19 have been reported through April 1, 2022.

This includes:

• 26,693 deaths

• 15,021 cases of Bell’s Palsy (facial paralysis)

• 4,478 miscarriages

• 13, 677 heart attacks

• 38,024 cases of myocarditis or pericarditis

I also don’t think any of that matters! Do you?

Ignoring any and all vaccine safety concerns makes them magically go away.

Besides, the only thing that really matters is billionaires getting richer and richer. After all, Covid vaccine profits have minted 9 new Big Pharma billionaires. And Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla made $24.3 million in 2021.

Hooray!

2. Freedom of Speech

Freedom of speech is fine and dandy, ’course. But freedom of speech should only apply to topics you agree with! If anyone wants to talk about something you don’t agree with (see #1, for instance), don’t allow it! Cut ‘em lose! Take away their platforms! Bar ’em from speaking in public!

That’s essentially what happened to philanthropist and drug trial funder, Steven Kirsch. Kirsch has donated so much money to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology that there’s an auditorium with his name on it on MIT’s campus.

Kirsch wanted to speak at MIT to share the most recent peer-reviewed science. But, and this will come as a huge shocker, I know, no one on the faculty was willing to sponsor him.

Good on them! We shouldn’t talk about science! Or about freedom of speech! We should just silent dissent and repeat our own beliefs over and over again in order to convince ourselves that they are true! Works every time.

3. Trans People in Women’s Prisons

Men who are sex offenders, rapists, and murderers in California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Scotland, and elsewhere in the United Kingdom can be transferred to women’s prisons if they “identify” as women.

Putting biological males who are transgender (or claim they are transgender in order to get a transfer) into women’s prisons has led to women prisoners being raped, beaten up, and traumatized. This is definitely something else we should not discuss!

In fact, if you even suggest to one of your very liberal young adult daughters that women prisoners who were themselves victims of sexual violence should not be forced to take showers with trans women who still have penises, they will accuse you of being transphobic and not caring about trans rights or about the fact that trans women often suffer terrible violence and cruelty in male prisons. Because, um, caring about women being brutalized means you don’t care about, um, women being brutalized!

Your same daughters will insist you watch videos about TERFS (trans exclusionary radical feminists) because you, obviously!, are one. Duh. Just bringing up the issue of … women bring brutalized … shows—no PROVES—that you are a homophobe, a transphobe, and a TERF.

My Way Or The Highway

There’s no both-and here, folks. Two things cannot be true at the same time. It cannot be true that one medication could be good for one person but devastating for another.

It cannot be true that freedom of speech must apply even to speech you disagree with.

And it cannot be true that you can care about women’s rights and trans rights at the same time.

Nope, nope, nopity nope. All the nopes in Nopeland.

But there is one thing that’s absolutely verifiably 100% true: Standing for censorship and canceling all conversation about difficult topics makes the problems disappear.

POOF!
