There's nothing unusual about talking politics, all of our lives are directly impacted by the choices our elected leaders make, and the ones we elect reflect the mood of the country, so we usually end up getting what we deserve. When both Enigma and Reefs are drawn into discussing worldly matters, it's fair to say we have an unusual situation. And the unusual situation is that the world's unfolding is now clearly not 'apart' from spirituality. Free speech is the superficial end of the wedge, but deeper than that, this is about the fundamental right to sovereignty, to be responsible for our inner worlds, to move attention, to participate creatively. And all that relates to what's happening politically. Seriously, I'm no Trump fan, I'm a leftie in many ways. But this is about far more than our personal dislike of him. This is about the potential of totalitarianism and freedom. There's validity to the accusation that he tries to operate as a dictator, but in many ways, you could be spiritually better off under a dictatorship of conservative values, than under Biden's pretence at democracy, which could turn out to be part of a global tyranny. Biden's progressives could well try to dictate what you think, feel, and what to do with your body. If you are in doubt about this global tyranny, look outside of America to what's happening. America has actually had protection of sorts up until now.

In every day worldly terms, the right to free speech matters. That right has been eroded in recent times, and the capacity to express that right, is being strongly manipulated (by the progressive left). In the end, what is spiritual, and therefore what is true, will prevail, because the tighter the grip of control, the more our truest desires seek to burst free. (Eckhart Tolle speaks pretty well on that) Well other than moderators my free speech has been unaffected so why should I care? And if platforms don't want to host your content, fine, use another. The aim is to eliminate all the platforms that do not think the way they want you to think. There's just so much evidence to support this around the world. Look at the 'acts' being passed. Look at the money being spent. Look at the way the technologies are being used. In the end, it's not your speech they want to control, it's your thought content, it's your mind movement, it's your attention.

Is this related to the mindset of a Glen Griswold throwing a fit and quitting his job over not being able to publish 'whatever you want'?

In the end, it's not your speech they want to control, it's your thought content, it's your mind movement, it's your attention. What specific content is being censored that you object to? This year, particularly, the massive censorship of qualified and well informed scientists, doctors and researchers. In addition, in actual spiritual groups I belong to, if one engages in political talk (in support of Trump) even in gentle terms, then those groups are likely to be closed down, or shadow banned. In addition, it's becoming increasingly difficult to talk about alternative health remedies. One person I know offers spiritual healings every month and has been repeatedly silenced on facebook on that basis alone. In addition, through concept manipulation e.g clever use of the words 'hate speech', academics and intellectuals with something to say about identity politics and free speech, are being silenced. The progressives run the internet. They run google. They run the big social media sites. They run the WHO. They run the UN. And they have an agenda, which can seem benevolent on the surface, but is actually very insidious in many ways.

It's an over reaction to the dis and misinformation campaigns which are corrupting the world yes...but it goes beyond that, because what we are left with isn't 'the facts', it's straight up propaganda. The globalists even own the darn 'fact checkers'! There's an actual agenda here, an attempt to control a very particular narrative. It's no different to Hitler/Goebbels' Germany, or the propaganda of Soviet Russia, but on a much grander and more deceitful scale. The internet is now being used as a form of mind control. They actually openly admit to their want to control the narratives, because they've presented the alternatives as a 'threat' in one way or another. Totalitarianism ALWAYS requires tacit public acceptance initially, and they know that. You'll see the nicest of people in other circumstances, wanting 'non-maskers' to die. That's a result of propaganda that has created enormous fear and hysteria.

Aaron Russo...Hollywood producer, in around 2007, with everything to lose and nothing to gain. Moving in all the top circles.
Of course, one piece of personal testimony alone is very unreliable.
But does he sound like he's being honest to the best of his ability?
