Tyranny is always conceived by a powerful few and midwived and delivered by the powerless masses who decide to be the enforcers of the establishment. Time and time again, autocrats were able to commit atrocities and stifle the freedoms of millions of people only because they were aided and abetted by the very people who were being oppressed. This is true of Germany during the age of Hitler, in my homeland Ethiopia when the Derg rose to power and countless other nations that were touched and shattered by the scourge of authoritarianism.
Because humans have the memory of cicada, we are traveling down the same roads of fascism and self-nullification that led to the destruction of every empire. Instead of debating armed with facts, ad hominem and shouting people down have become as commonplace as tea and crumpets in London. Reporting others to the authorities and muzzling people based on their identity or beliefs is so pervasive that the cancel culture has turned society into a Petri dish of pretentious and preening dolts. As much as the corporate-government-media complex keep stripping our freedoms away, the actions of too many who resuscitated McCarthyism and tattletale on anyone who does not abide their narrow doctrines are just as malicious.
When someone dares to exercise their Constitutional and God-given rights to free speech and state something that runs counter to conventional “wisdom”, they are met not with disagreement but with baseball bats as a cavalcade of snitches immediately refer people they do not agree with to the “higher ups”. Instead of debating in good faith and attacking the facts, the new normal is to bash and bloody “heretics” in order to appease fragile feelings. We are letting snowflakes—who get offended by ideas that counter their gospels of nescience—and counterfeit social justice warriors to cyberbully everyone and infect public opinion in the process.
As much as I chafe at the way Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Reddit and other social media platforms censor millions of people, the reality is that their tyranny is being enabled by treacherous snakes among us who think so highly of themselves that they believe anyone who doesn’t echo their dogmas must be silenced. The same way that neighbors used to call the secret police on neighbors in my birthland Ethiopia and assisted the ruling class to commit a genocide against 500,000 plus men, women and children in the name of safety and security, jackasses with egos the size of Texas and wisdom befitting Sarah Palin are nullifying the rights of others because they equate dissent with oppression.
Yesterday evening, I entered a room in Clubhouse that was dedicated to the way YouTube censored Bret Weinstein by taking down an amazing interview he conducted that informed tens of thousands of people about the safety and efficacy of Ivermectin in treating Covid-19. After listening attentively for about 30 minutes, I was invited to the stage to speak. Given the fact that the topic was censorship, I decided to talk less about the science behind mRNA and adenovirus boosters that are being presented as a panacea even though they could very well be worse than the disease itself and instead focused on the human factor of fear that has led us to this paradigm of Covid totalitarianism. I barely spoke before one of the moderators promptly booted me off stage and paternalistically state that he does not have time for my nonsense.
I was just engaged in a conversation on @Clubhouse where there was a discussion about the censorship that’s taking place w/ respect to the “vaccine” debate. I got on stage to speak & barely got a few words in before one of the mods @LeoDaneel promptly booted me off the stage /1

The irony of it all, on a stage full of people who were outraged about the denial Bret Weinstein free-speech, all but a few spoke up in my defense as they coveted the microphone more than they cared about the very liberties they were supposedly fighting to preserve. Earlier that day, I was in another room that was started to discuss the way “vaccine” spiked proteins accumulate inside ovaries, a condition that induces abnormal menstrual cycles and has the very real possibility of making women who are jabbed infertile. A doctor was leading the conversation when all the sudden a bunch of rabid participants joined the room and immediately poisoned the room with their condescension.
Within short order, the room was shut down and the doctor who was offering information based on Pfizer’s own research was banned from Clubhouse. This level of breathtaking suppression was only possible because a procession of entitled and self-important goons reported the room, the doctor and another moderator named Nic Kimberley Mitchell, a former BBC journalist, to Clubhouse. Instead of engaging in debates armed with facts, they torpedoed a discussion that involved hundreds of people in the audience because they insolently believed that they have ownership of truth and must abort the voices of others who have divergent thoughts. This type of abrasive demeanor is not about science, these are dispositions exhibited by cultists.
Though these repressive tactics are prevalent throughout society, the truth is that some of the most zealous fascists are people who are on the “left” and identify as “progressives”. There is nothing progressive about censorship; if you were offended by the conduct of our previous president yet revert to his level of smugness and ostentation, you were only triggered because Trump was reflecting your character. As for doctors who think their PhDs give them license to lecture us and rob people of their agency, I am here to tell you that your doctorate does not grant you wisdom. To the contrary, most of the time, highly educated means supremely indoctrinated.
As chance would have it, as soon as I published this article, I was tipped off that the very same doctors who reported Dr. Nick and keep getting people banned from Clubhouse posted this tweet below. Like cowards who bully others and then claim to be victims when the people they victimize push back, they are trying to gas light their followers and bend public opinion in their favor by reverting to Machiavellian ploys. While I admire and honor medical professionals for the work that they do—especially given how doctors and nurses were there in my family’s time of needs as my mom was succumbing to Covid-19 last year—I will not stand by and let his group of pernicious biotech corporation shills try to cow people into submission by weaponizing their titles. I remind Dr. Siyab Panhwar and his group of highly funded mercenaries what happened to doctors who experimented on Jews and other marginalized communities without informed consent.
Harassment of physicians and rampant spreading of misinformation on @Clubhouse right now. As usual @pdavison @rohanseth @anuatluru remain silent. pic.twitter.com/KB7LMHkmXl

I know that we are enduring stressful times and that everyone’s nerves are frayed thanks to this dreaded pandemic, but it is precisely during these moments that we need compassion and empathy the most. Instead, we are being flooded by a bunch of nitwits drunk on their own egos who are intent on suppressing free-speech. There are some who traffic in this type of hostility because they are hurting and I want to be compassionate to these people; but at a certain point, I cannot remain silent when those who are broken insist on breaking others. If you cannot engage in civil discourse and instead want to lash out at others because you are hurting, get off social media and seek help.
There is nothing progressive about silencing people based on their beliefs and there is nothing conservatives about censorship, people who bully and canceling others they don't agree with are cancers upon us. #GainOfDisfunction Click To TweetI can tell you from personal experience where we are headed as a people if we keep allowing the rights of most to be negated by the loudest and most obnoxious trolls. We are already seeing restaurants in Chicago revive apartheid as they partition “vaccinated” people apart from the unjabbed, segregated concerts taking place at Madison Square Garden and high school proms where unhinged educators are using markers to brand people who are not “vaccinated; if we do not push back severely against this type of state sponsored and outsourced bigotry, we will find out the hard way how collective judgement eventually leads to collective punishment. Mass-atrocities do not happen overnight, they sprout from the soils of otherization and demonization which eventually lead to persecution of people based on their identities, beliefs or both.
A society that censors is a society that is in a death spiral. There are millions of people marching and protesting on behalf of human rights but the sad truth is that most are only concerned about their privileges while they deny other humans their rights. It’s often said that snitches get stiches, but this time around people who keep squealing on others will not get stabbed by vigilantes who hate informants but by the very authorities they keep tipping off. People who revel in schadenfreude at the thought of gagging others are weaving a rope that will one day be a noose around their necks. As abuses are committed against others and condoned by society, those same mistreatments will come for those who remain silent or comply with injustice.
“Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe.” ~ Elie Wiesel
