Free Speech

 

Freedom of speech is infinite and absolute. This individual right applies to social communications no matter how false and evil the spoken or written words. It applies no matter how terrible the speaker, malicious the intent, vulnerable the target, or socially destructive the result. In a free society the only proper and allowable defenses against false and evil verbal expression is true and good expression, such as intellectual refutation and moral condemnation of the speech, along with economic boycott and social ostracism of the speaker. Fortunately, these counter-attacks are highly effective in preventing, defeating, and punishing bad speech.

Freedom of expression includes limitless amounts falsehoods, lies, abuse, slander, defamation, bigotry, hated, malevolence, betrayal, blasphemy, cowardice, treason, rebellion, revolution, sleaze, obscenity, stupidity, and depravity. In a good society these are all relatively harmless. But freedom of speech does not include (1) financial fraud, (2) verbal terrorism, or (3) incitement to riot and mayhem. This is because these are really actions and not verbal communications. These dishonest, terrifying, or violent “words” are, in fact, criminal behavior, namely: (1) theft, (2) deliberately, fraudulently panicking others to cause destruction of people and property, and (3) implicitly ordering others to destroy people and property. Despite primitive appearances and surface impressions, such “speech” and behavior constitutes physical aggression and the initiation of force against innocent people or their property.

True Bigotry

 

If you criticize a single black, Hispanic, woman, gay, Moslem, or foreigner today, in this post-1960s era, this is automatically considered an attack upon all of them. If you dare to say something negative about some genuinely-low black, Hispanic, woman, gay, Moslem, or foreigner, somewhere somehow somewhen, then you are instantly labeled a bigot and monster by the best-educated and most virtuous intellectual leaders in our nitwit, dirtbag, Dark Age.

It doesn't matter how relevant, true, and just your criticisms are; nor how tolerant, good, and noble a person you are; nor how virtuous, innocent, and pure the motivations for your criticism. You still get passionately and furiously condemned as a racist, sexist, homophobe, Islamophobe, xenophobe, or whatever.

And our irrational, illiberal, lamebrain, slimeball society – even in the rather hopeful, anti-D.E.I. Trump era – is openly and defiantly proud of the injustice and rottenness of its public pronouncements and judgments here. When it comes to modern reverse-bigotry, our world today is cruel and evil deliberately.

Even worse, most people today still ostentatiously and obnoxiously pat themselves on the back for their supposed willingness and ability to crush the Klan, or Hitler, or whatever, even tho traditional, pre-1960s bigotry against "minorities" (who make up the vast majority) was thoroughly defeated generations ago. Politically correct, multicultural, diverse, sensitive, inclusive, Woke folks are the new bigots, and the only real ones still around. It's no exaggeration to say that today's smug, pompous, assertive, confident, overweening, vicious, malevolent vermin are in many respects even worse than old-style Ku Klux Klansmen and Hitler worshipers.

The modern-world contingent of flamboyant "bigotry" and "hate" fighters isn't so much depraved and loathsome as it is contemptible, disgusting, laughable, and absurd.

Fully Rounded Man

 

Rev. Minot Savage (1841-1918) may be distinctly religious. But he’s also distinctly wise. And he’s still a liberal intellectual. Here’s an excerpt from his first book, Christianity -- The Science of Manhood (1873, p. 9-16):

"Body, mind, heart, spirit, -- we have found that these all are factors of man as he actually exists. Or, to give it such expression as no one can deny, man sustains physical, mental, affectional, and [spiritual] relations. The faculties which make up his fitness for these relations constitute him what he is. But unless rightly combined and proportioned, they cannot make a true manhood, any more than roots and trunk and boughs and leaves make a tree, when the roots are in the air, and one of the boughs is larger than the trunk. Relation and proportion have as much to do with making men, as do the essential elements themselves...

"The true manhood then is not found in the dominion of any one of these to the ignoring or degrading of another. It is in the right development and ranking of them all. Man should be a pyramid, having his body for the base, and his [spiritual] faculty for the apex, with heart and brain between.

"The body must be governed by the reason. The reason also must check and guide the action of heart and spirit, though they both are superior to it in their highest range and uses. A whole body, a clear, strong, quick intellect, a heart that loves the best, and an upward looking of the whole being to the absolute right and true, -- these make a man all that it is possible for him to become."

New Space Probes

 

It's long past time for humans to launch new interstellar space probes. The American government's NASA space company launched Voyager 2 in August, 1977; and Voyager 1 in September, 1977. Voyager 2 travels at about 9.6 miles per second and is 12.9 million miles away; Voyager 1 travels at about 10.6 miles per second, and is 15.5 million miles out. Both are an awesome seven to eight times further away from the sun than the last planet Uranus, which is 1.7 million miles distant from Earth. Both crafts still partially function, which is impressive. But both use grossly out-of-date, 48-year-old technology!

New private spaceships would have vastly superior cameras and sensing equipment to gather far more knowledge of the distant planets, Kuiper Belt, and outer space. And these probes could travel at at least three times the Voyager speeds, at over 30 miles per second, by using gravity assist from Jupiter. NASA's 2018 Parker Solar Probe, using gravity assist from the sun (getting within a dangerous 3.8 million miles), travels at a stunning 110 miles per second; so possibly new Voyager-type space exploration craft could get close to that. SpaceX, Firefly Aerospace, Blue Origin, Rocket Lab, Relativity Space, Sierra Space, and Intuitive Machines – all successful capitalist space companies based in America – need to get to work! Since this would largely be a quest for general knowledge, possibly several of these private companies could collaborate. By firing the public imagination, it might be easy for them to get funding from other large corporations and the general public for this magnifcent venture!

Free Speech and Chosen Speech

 

The ultimate answer for the current social media controversy about free speech vs. content moderation/censorship is: custom filtration. Let each individual account-holder choose the material and posts he wishes to see. Facebook, YouTube, Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok, and many others need to abandon their current mindless and amoral “one-size-fits-all” content-monitoring policy. Instead, they should embrace customization and individual-tailoring.

Some social media group-members embrace right-wing religious conservatism, and tend to want to see many posts on that, along with few or no posts reflecting left-wing collectivist progressivism. Some group-members are the exact opposite. And some are moderates or free-thinkers which want to see a variety of intellectual content. Still others have a personal philosophy or interest which reflects socialism, Islam, Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism, Scientology, Existentialism, atheism, hedonism, classical liberalism, libertarianism, Objectivism, and more. This wide variety of human types almost always prefer to view certain types of social media content ahead of others. Their needs and desires should be accommodated.

The best solution to the current content-moderation dilemma is probably for the various social media platforms to make certain parts of their source code freely available to software designers so that they can cleverly and deftly customize the different sites. This way the social media platforms will provide the best user experience to almost all of their diverse collection of participants.

There shouldn’t be “one-size-fits-all” content censorship. Nor should there be content anarchy. Let the customer decide. Let the many different clients of Facebook, YouTube, Twitter/X, Instagram, TokTok, and others finally be free of Big Tech’s Big Brother-like control. Let each person individually customize their social media and select which flavor of these Websites they prefer.

Diversity

There’s no shortage of American politicians, journalists, and intellectuals who blithely claim: “Diversity is a strength.” Indeed, the Wokesters, post-modernists, virtue-signallers, societal destroyers, America haters, and lowlifes often brazenly proclaim: "Diversity is our greatest social and civilizational strength."

Examples of this are Hillary Clinton during her 2016 presidential campaign stating: “Diversity is a strength, not a weakness.” At the Democratic National Convention that year, ex-president Barach Obama said: “Our diversity...will always be one of our greatest strengths.” In 2023 President Joe Biden averred: “Diversity is our strength.”

Nothing could be further from the truth. America’s greatest asset and strength is freedom. Political, social, and economic liberty are central to America’s greatness and nobility. They generate wealth, health, virtue, character, cultural richness, scientific progress, military power, peace, social harmony, and personal greatness and happiness. Diversity, on the other hand, leads to weakness, disunity, and destruction. Both the individual and the society suffer.

Professor Robert Putnam’s famous 2007 Harvard study – E Pluribus Unum: Diversity and Community in the 21st Century – got it exactly right: Diversity is deadly. It degrades social cohesion and exacerbates civil strife. Putnum observed: “Diversity appears to make people uncomfortable with social interaction generally.” Also that: “In ethnically diverse neighborhoods residents of all races tend to ‘hunker down’ – they withdraw from collective life.” And that: “[I]mmigration and diversity tend to reduce social solidarity and social capital.”

America today has far too many blacks, Hispanics, Moslems, and coloreds inside it. These inferiors hold the United States back and drag it down. They degrade the culture and lower the quality of life, just as they create national disunity, social conflict, lack of cooperation, and inter-group hatred. Natural human solidarity and the brotherhood of man go into the toilette.

Ethnic-wise, America would hugely benefit from more racial and ethnic homogeneity. The nation needs far more naturally high-quality White people in its population. Whites need to breed more and immigration needs to focus much more on true value and objective merit. This means far more Anglo-Saxons, northwest Europeans, and other racially-pure Nordics. The United States would also profit from additional Orientals and Jews.

America needs to get rid of as many naturally and nurturally inferior Third World savages as possible. Such lowlifes, animals, and interior saboteurs considerably diminish America’s unity and strength.

The undeniable truth is: Diversity devastates America. We need to shrink it immediately and radically.

Make YOURSELF Great Again

 

Every human life is sacred and precious. Every person and existence is like a precious jewel – something to be celebrated, relished, and treasured. It’s the job of every one of us to accomplish and achieve as much as we can during our invaluable, but painfully limited, lifespans. We need to be as great as possible – manifesting an outstanding education, high character, and noble soul – and to live with as much meaning, purpose, pleasure, and happiness as humanly possible. Every sacred soul needs to continuously expand his horizons, maximize his potential, live out his dreams, and fulfill his destiny. Every indomitable spirit needs to forever rise. This is so, however impoverished your society and tyrannical your government. No matter how poor your family, friends, culture, social milieu, job, and circumstances, you still owe it to yourself to work as hard and smart as you can, and to uplift your sacred self and life to the sky.

Immigration Privileges

 

Proper countries and states are formed when a group of people who own contiguous land get together and voluntarily, unanimously decide to form a government or defensement which will protect their rights, liberties, persons, and properties. The founding fathers of this new country need to formally and officially sign a contract and constitution to this effect.

In theory, such a state could have open borders with no restrictions on visitors and no immigration laws. But in practice, this has never before happened in the history of man, nor is it ever likely to. The people of every country invariably and rightly choose to restrict these two political privileges. They generally restrict or forbid from entering: open enemies, extreme criminals, carriers of deadly diseases, severe lowlifes, lunatics, and often even Communists, Nazis, Moslems, and Satanists. This policy and law is normal, natural, healthy, wise, and morally right.

Thus, when good people establish a new libertarian state, they inform their citizens that they have no right to unilaterally invite in their friends – such as to visit their private property or to work at their private business – if the visitors fall into the above or similar categories. Such citizens do enjoy limitless freedom in themselves, but this does not include the right to violate the country’s visitation and immigration laws. Such laws probably significantly enhance safety and security for all. The only alternative here, for a person to successfully invite in his dubious friends, is to get the defensement to change the policy and laws, based on already agreed-upon principles of law-making.

Otherwise, foreigners are not free to trespass or invade. There is no such individual or civil right. Any temporary visitation or permanent immigration is a matter of political privilege, and thus restricting or forbidding it is not a violation of the invitee's, or would-be visitor's, liberties or rights.

Against Judaism and Christianity

 

The Old Testament was written and edited by Jews mostly during the magnificent Greek Era, and thus contains many elements of sound, excellent, Greek philosophy. The New Testament was written during the magnificent Roman Era, and thus contains many elements of sound, excellent, Roman philosophy.

But the Bible is also suffused with irrationality and supernaturalism. It mostly stands in opposition to reality, this world, Mother Nature, and Natural Law. It rejects individual happiness and human greatness in this world. Jewish and Christian philosophy opposes reason, science, materialism, and “worldliness”. They oppose what Augustine called “The City of Man” in favor of “The City of God”. Ancient monotheists said it was the sacred duty of man not to achieve or be heroic, but rather to be humble, submissive, obedient, and a “slave” to this new “god” thing. These monstrous goals and ideals are why the best and brightest of the Greeks and Romans were so passionate in their desire to defeat the foolish and depraved Jews and Christians.

Greek historian Apion (~20 BC to ~45 AD) noted: “The Jews have chosen a way of life contrary to all humanity.” Roman historian Tacitus (56 to 120 AD) observed: “The practices of the Jews are base and abominable, and owe their persistence to their depravity.”

As for the Jewish offshoots, Tacitus states: “The Christians were convicted [after a terrible fire], not so much for the crime of arson, but of hatred against mankind.” Roman intellectual Celsus [~140 to ~220 AD] criticized the leading thinkers of both Judaism and Christianity saying: “They invite [to their religions] the foolish, the dishonorable, and the stupid.” Moreover: “Their injunctions are like this: ‘Let no-one educated, no-one wise, no-one sensible draw near. For these abilities are thought by us to be evils.’”

It’s very suppressed today, but the fact is the finest intellectuals and philosophers of classical Greece and Rome hated and feared Judaism and Christianity. They saw these bizarre and loathsome belief-systems as alien and inimical to virtue, happiness, and their respective ways of life. What a horror that to this day Western culture still hasn’t decently rejected the disastrous and depraved philosophies of Judaism and Christianity.

New Day Dawning

 

Hopefully, Donald Trump will partially govern like a liberal hero: pro-freedom, pro-capitalism, pro-Enlightenment values, pro-Western Civilization, and hugely pro-American. Hopefully, Trump will emerge as a semi-libertarian. As such...

Job One is cut spending and shrink the government. State power and authority should decline while Individual liberty and responsibility should rise. The five main costs of the federal government are: $1.5 trillion for Social Security, $1.1 trillion for servicing the debt, $1.0 trillion for Medicare, $0.9 trillion for funding the military, and $0.6 trillion for Medicaid. If interest rates are cut from Biden’s 7% in late 2024, to Trump’s 3.5% in late 2019, this should save about $550 billion per year. By getting better deals, lessening waste and fraud, and buying more effective weapons, the military can maybe be cut by about $150 billion. Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid should be reduced by one-third at a minimum, as Americans turn to private charity, and away from today’s communist charity. That almost saves Elon Musk’s two trillion dollars right there!

Job Two is flatten taxes. Everyone should pay 20% of income or 1% of net worth, whichever is greater. There needs to be no exceptions whatsoever. There needs to be zero tax deductions, exemptions, write-offs, shelters, loopholes, and subsidies for both rich and poor.

Job Three is deregulate all business. Production and trade should feature far fewer labor laws, business permits, and professional licenses. Let everybody become a doctor, lawyer, and stock-broker instantly. Without waiting or needing Big Brother’s approval, let everyone open up a business in their house or shop, such as a hotel, restaurant, bar, movie theater, dance hall, hair salon, gym, mechanic, repair shop, clothing store, grocery, pharmacy, casino, sex club, and the like. Private evaluation and accreditation services like Angie’s List and Yelp will replace the current communist ones. Let people work and get rich!

Job Four is deregulate all personal and social behavior. As much as possible, free up drugs, prostitution, and gambling. Let people have fun and be happy!

Job Five is break all diplomatic, cultural, social, and economic relations with slave states. Especially China, Russia, Pakistan, North Korea, Iran, and Saudi Arabia. It's a crime to interact with such savages and monsters. Why morally sanction, financially enrich, and militarily empower our enemies and destroyers?

These five jobs are more than enough for Donald Trump to get started on. In today's hideous welfare state world, even a liberal hero will find them rather challenging.

But hopefully a new day of liberty is dawning! There should be more possibilities for human greatness and happiness coming up! Perhaps soon there will be more Individual pleasure and satisfaction, mixed with social cooperation and harmony, based upon significantly expanded liberalism and political freedom!
