Harvey’s Introduction
Tierney does a particularly good job of critiquing Facebook’s “fact-checking”, which is really a form of censorship. He shows good examples. If Facebook wants to censor(let’s not confuse what they do with fact checking), they should be treated legally as publishers and be subject to the same laws as other publishers.

Many people wonder how close we are to completely destroying our patrimony and beginning the process of sliding into our national old age and decline. Mr. Hansen articulates this concern.
Harvey’s Introduction
The Communications Act Section 230 protects tech companies from lawsuits under many circumstances. It allows certain kinds of censorship. The tech companies have acted as if there no limits on their ability to censor. Mr Hamburger argues persuasively that their excesses may (and perhaps should) lead to courts ultimately defining those limits. This article is a very good review of the issues.

“Liberal” are advocating for limiting or reducing freedom of speech because their view about misinformation. They don’t even get the irony that they spew lots of misinformation themselves. They thought Trump attacked the press and don’t want that to happen. And, to boot, they call Trump fascist. Hah!
Harvey’s Introduction
Liberals attempt to cast themselves as, well liberal, and tolerant. Fascism, to them is only a danger coming from the few lunatics on the extreme right in our country. The real danger from fascism is from the left, which is not a small, fringe, unimportant group. It is the governing thrust behind the Democrat Party. So far, the press is going along with it. Ihope it wakes up. I fear it won’t.
Harvey’s Introduction
Trump established a Commission to examine the principles underlying our nation’s founding and the reflection of those principles in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. The Commission was established to refute many of the claims about the structural evil of our founding and the lies promulgated by the NY Times 1620 project. One of the authors wrote an explanation of the Commission’s work. Of course Biden took the report down from the Government’s website. At the end of the article is a link to the actual commission report.

I thought Biden’s Inaugural Address was an opportunity to begin to restore a modicum of civility to public discourse. He blew it, deliberately or inadvertently. I don’t know which. Heather MacDonald takes it apart with her rapier mind.
Harvey’s Introduction
Critical Race Theory sounds like a scientific look at something. It’s not. It is scientifically unsound and morally bankrupt.
