The day I realized Free Speech Was Dead.

in alex •  6 years ago 

This morning I awoke to the day I dreaded the most.

This morning I woke to see that free speech has been completely curtailed by the powerful few that control the avenues we once distributed it by.

I woke to find that free thought is now considered to be dangerous to others and should be viewed as hateful and must be shunned.

I woke to find that not believing the narrative put forth by the mega-corporations that control all avenues of free speech is to be considered a poison on our society, and that those thoughts need to be silenced wherever and whenever we hear it.

I woke to find a world where I no longer have the choice to decide what I want to believe and who I want to listen to. Instead that I should trust that these mega-corporations to have my best interests in mind even when they clearly don't.

The worst part about waking up this morning was hearing the cries of joy as half of the country celebrated the death of free speech. So brain washed and indoctrinated by these same mega-corporations, that they honestly and truthfully believe that silencing the opposition though censorship is a good thing.

I woke up and realized that this short sighted "victory" a canary in the coal mine that signaled the death of what once was.

Free speech is dead. Erased gleefully by those fools that couldn't see past the tiny win they achieved while they were busy destroying it.
