“Freedom of speech is a principal pillar of a free government; when this support is taken away, the constitution of a free society is dissolved, and tyranny is erected on its ruins. Republics…derive their strength and vigor from a popular examination into the action of the magistrates.” – Benjamin Franklin
We are no longer a free nation.
When speech is no longer free, when opinions are no longer permitted if they are contradictory to the narrative, when our media no longer reports the facts in an unbiased manner – we are no longer a free society.
The internet and social media – the 21st century’s “public square” – have become just another tool for squashing dissent. This website will aim to break through that wall of censorship by publishing editorials and news stories that the mainstream media will not cover, and that big tech companies will not allow.
Our Founding Fathers created a nation where freedom was always the most important commodity – before safety, or even wealth. We must keep that dream alive. – SDG
