Norman Rockwell, Study for “Freedom of Speech”

1,763 words

The ruling elites in Canada want a silent citizenry incapable of challenging them. They want to avail themselves of the boons of technology with none of its drawbacks; they wish to become a political and economic class immune to criticism. The multicultural system that they preside over is inherently unstable; and increasingly, maintaining the status quo requires authoritarian controls over free speech.

In theory, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees freedom of expression under section 2(b): “Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: . . . freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication.” This was once a cornerstone of Canadian democracy that includes the right to communicate ideas, even unpopular ones.

The hit song for summer 2024 is here, and who could have guessed that it would come not from the contemporary assortment of scantily-clad bimbos and dress-wearing soyboys whom the music industry promotes as the ‘‘artists’’ of our time, but from a goofy Italian DJ circa 1999? The future really is the past.

25 years ago, Luigini Celestino di Agostino, known by his stage name Gigi D’Agostino, recorded a track called “L’Amour Toujours.” You might have heard it at some point. (more…)

That elusive last puzzle-piece

The jigsaw puzzle that is the United Kingdom of Britain and Northern Ireland has a piece missing. Of the puzzle’s four parts, as of this month the only non-white premier in Great Britain is Michelle O’Neill, a worryingly white-skinned blonde who obstinately stands in the way of an ethnic minority clean sweep of the UK’s top posts in government.

With the resignation of Welsh premier Mark Drakeford, a black man, Vaughan Gething, was duly elected in his place, and he wasted no time celebrating the fact that he is the first black premier in the European Union. There, you might be tempted to say, goes the neighborhood. (more…)

One of the points Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn bangs home a lot in his classic work of historical research, The Gulag Archipelago, is that political prisoners in the Soviet gulag system were of lower status and were treated worse than actual criminals, such as rapists, thieves, and murderers. This is exactly what happens when a hostile elite takes over a nation. At best, it doesn’t trust the people. (more…)

Now there is a Pole memed round the world . . . On the December 12, 2023, Polish MP Grzegorz Braun used a fire extinguisher to put out the lights on a hanukkiah (incorrectly referred to as a menorah in most reports) in the Polish Parliament. The questions everyone on the dissident Right is asking are how did that happen, and is Grzegorz Braun our guy? Just to spoil the fun for everyone right away: no, he is not our guy, and his intentions were not 100% “red-pilled.” Probably the best comparison we can make to anglosphere politics is to say that Braun is a “Catholic Alex Jones” of sorts.

The recent tilt towards authoritarianism across Europe and the Commonwealth, aided and abetted by the Covid-19 pandemic which, even if not intentionally manufactured was certainly deliberately manipulated, has a curious aspect. It seems to the casual eye that certain countries have been selected to test-run various globalist designs.

The Antipodean nations, Australia and New Zealand, got to try out statist control with lockdown policies more restrictive than just about anywhere bar China. (more…)

John Stuart Mill, in On Liberty, provides us with a brief crime report from the nineteenth century:

Penalties for opinion, or at least for its expression, still exist by law; and their enforcement is not, even in these times, so unexampled as to make it at all incredible that they may some day be revived in full force. In the year 1857, at the summer assizes of the county of Cornwall, an unfortunate man, said to be of unexceptionable conduct in all relations of life, was sentenced for 21 months’ imprisonment, for uttering, and writing on a gate, some offensive words concerning Christianity.
