"Free speech"

"Free speech" only has value when it can be used to expose corruption and organize resistance to, and awareness of, untenable situations. But everybody is too retarded for that, and would rather cry about garbage.

Hell, even the Occupy Wall Street movement WILLINGLY gave up on talking about big-finance corruption and enforced economic inequality in favor of crying about sluts, transgendered perma-victims and other upper-class non-issues.

It's laughable to cry about "free speech" in a climate where all speech that people pay any attention to is simply a pointless argument between rich kids over who is the most moral.

Face it, we are being controlled by too much speech, not too little. Everything has become an empty spectacle where only meaningless emotions and immediate gratification are given weight and you'd be hard-pressed to find somebody who actually believed in humanity's value let alone was willing to make short-term sacrifices or admit wrong for the greater good.

The reason everything devolves into "upper-class non-issues" is because the lower classes of the Western world have been silenced through a terrible education system. Also Occupy Wall Street had to be an upper-class non-issue because of the logistics and costs of protesting.

If you try and talk about inequality in the US (and others) you have to talk about the class problem - the failure of socialized education, wages not keeping up with COL and the failure of welfare (which has decimated communities) - but a bunch of rich kids can't do it because they benefit from keeping the poor living hand to mouth and being uneducated.

All they can do is cry about gay and transgender and women's rights and pretend that the class problem isn't there. The media has to comment on the fucking obvious poverty and inequality, but again, they frame it as a race issue to avoid the implications of class-based inequality.

The implications are that the Western world has been co opted by a small group who have horded all the wealth and opportunity and pulled the ladder up behind them. The people in the media and universities directly benefit from this situation.

It wasn't willing. They were infiltrated or bribed, and thus controlled by the agents of the Big Money. Derailing your opponent and making him focus on non-issues is an excellent tactic.

I should clarify: I mean everybody with a voice in society of any kind has a vested interest in ignoring the root issues of the current system. And this has trickled down from the top to create a society where nothing of value can be said because there's always an elephant in the room. All of us are living hypocritical and morally reprehensible lives, and all speech is just a way to validate the underlying lies. Society has to fall, due to the inhumanity involved in living such complex lies and dealing with such cognitive dissonance.

Yep. This group got rich in the non-real sector of economics: banking, investment banking, derivatives, futures trading - all those bullshit professions where you can get lots of money without producing any useful goods or services, and where the richer you are, the greater your income. In this game, the ladder is really pulled up: you can't get rich in the real sector anymore because it's been drained by the non-real sector, and you can't get rich in the non-real sector because your chances of getting rich in a world of whales like Warren Buffet are 0.0(0)%.

Before Snowden, people who thought NSA is spying on everyone were called tinfoil nutwits, too. Guess who turned out to be right.

Everybody knew, numbnuts. What did you think people were talking about when criticizing the Patriot Act, way back on 2001?

Occupy Wall Street was doomed, that's what happens with disorganized headless protests, they lose focus and die. When anyone can take up the protest banner and use it to complain about anything, then the protest becomes about every issue ever.

Very few people actually give a fuck about the poor. Even the liberalist of liberals will sneer at the homeless begging them for change on their way to the coffee shop to get a frappuccino.

Check 'em, boys
