I’m turning 41, but I don’t feel like celebrating.
Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet built for us by our fathers.
What was once the promise of the free exchange of information is being turned into the ultimate tool of control.
Once-free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age checks (Australia), and mass scanning of private messages (EU).
Germany is persecuting anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets. France is criminally investigating tech leaders who defend freedom and privacy.
A dark, dystopian world is approaching fast - while we’re asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms -and allowed them to be taken away.
We’ve been fed a lie.
We’ve been made to believe that the greatest fight of our generation is to destroy everything our forefathers left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market, and free speech.
By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we’ve set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction - moral, intellectual, economic, and ultimately biological.
So no, I’m not going to celebrate today. I’m running out of time. We are running out of time.
What an absolute loads of bollocks.
There has recently been 1 woman jailed for her tweets where she admitted to inciting violence, not because of free speech issues.
These libertarian wankers love citing that sole case (and make out that it’s “thousands, I tell ya!”) but will overlook that several Just Stop Oil protesters were jailed for 4 years just for holding a zoom call and anti-genocide protesters are being arrested and charged with terrorism offences just for writing on a bit of cardboard.
So just do ignore all the news reports and video of citizens filming the cops coming to arrest them over tweets. You people are so sheepish
I love when people call other people sheep because they don’t believe them but they are following other online like sheep.
I don’t follow this guy. I found him to be a pussy when the French government arrested him. I’m sharing the news as it relates to privacy and your very smooth brain may not have grasped it yet, but this is a small victory for spreading the corruption of these governments that are trying to censor information.
And if you paid any attention to those reports, you would know that the vast majority are where those people have been critical of the UK or other govts actions, especially surrounding Palestine and none have gone further with the exception of Asa Winstanley. The only reason the police have visited those people is because zionist like complaining about nothing until they get their own way.
The one that the commentor here was responding to was a clear case of inciting violence. The same with people like the constantly crashing out Graham Lineham, who was arrested by police because he was inciting violence against a protected class.
So while the UK govt is infringing on peoples free speech, its not the ones who are getting all the publicity. Theyre just a bunch of whining fuckwits who want to be able to threaten people without consequence.
Please do try to keep abreast of the situation rather than stomping in with big boots and looking like a fucking idiot.
Why would she admit something like that… This sounds sus. You got a link?
She admitted it because she was caught bang to rights
Interesting… 2 years for an idiotic post. Interesting use of taxpayer money.
But these people allow pedos go free and live their best lives
“An idiotic post”
She was inciting people to burn down hotels housing vulnerable people. Some of those padeos you bleat about were at the protests while 60% of those arrested at a protest in Bristol have form as domestic abusers
Yes, all about protecting women and kids.
I am not sure what point you are trying to make here.
Pedos should be in prison or dead.
uK is like US a place where they got to live their best lives tho
You should ask that of yourself. Youre the one who brought up paedos. Maybe you get all too muddled in your head and cant make a salient point?
Wasting resources to police speech in a country over ran with pedos like Andrew is clown behaviour
If you’re having trouble stringing a sentence together, feel free to draw a picture with crayons.
Only the rich ones that can fly on private jets to far islands.
