Makes sense.

Only idiots would start or join a process that is very much akin to sawing off the branch one's sitting on without having a clear idea of what the future could hold :p
 
It started with Assange and has now moved to the mainstream, one of the warrants allows for them to "add, copy, delete or alter" computer files at the ABC. The media were silent or supported the same treatment of Assange, now they are receiving the same treatment.

The same is true for censorship, first start with the left calling to silence conservative voices, applauded by the MSM, they will eventually move onto everyone else.

Governments only want you to know what they want you to know, being assisted in that quest by citizens is the perfect excuse they have - 1984.

More Bizarre news out of Europe.


Le Pen's lawyer, David Dassa-Le Deist, told AFP that the law in question, which prevents people from spreading violent, terrorist, or pornographic content, was being used to "summon" Le Pen and limit her "freedom of expression".

The French National Assembly and European Parliament both waived her immunity status as a Parliamentary deputy in 2017 in relation to the case.

Liberalism may produce muddled Government as in Brexit but it is still imho far preferable to having some awful dictator ruining your life.

Brexit is simply a collective kick in the nuts that the UK Govt (any persuasion) richly deserves. It's the long festering backlash against Govt enabled promotion of minority interests over the unrepresented masses. The critical mass has been reached and there's no going back.

Boris has publicly stated that he is prepared to suspend Parliament if they can't get their minds around Brexit !!

Pres. Putin's remarks about the West's failing Liberal parties made me laugh. He may be right about the upsurge of
Populism though. Many people of Turkey have suffered greatly from purges by the dictatorial leadership. But they have responded with courage to defy the Establishment in the Istanbull re-run election.
Surely it is better for the average person to live in a free and just system than a dictatorship, even if it is a bit of a muddle.

You need to define dictatorship, the EU could be considered to be a dictatorship if enough people recognise it so.
