"If you are genuinely celebrating 'Independence Day,' then remember what it was truly about: fed up with an overbearing and overreaching government, which trampled on their rights, and was so disconnected that it no longer could serve them, people in 13 individual colonies declared their political, economic, and cultural separation and asserted their sovereignty as 13 separate, individual, distinct, and independent nation-states.
The best way for Texans to celebrate the spirit of July 4, 1776, is to hoist a Texas flag and ONLY a Texas flag and remind everyone around you that Texas is a free and independent State. Remind them that what we endure from the 2.5 million unelected bureaucrats in Washington is EXACTLY why the 13 colonies declared their independence from Great Britain and why Texas declared its independence from Mexico.
It is a celebration of intolerance toward would-be tyrants, including those in Washington and Austin. It is a reminder that the preservation of some principles, such as liberty and self-government, sometimes demands a heavy price. It also serves as a reminder that Texas, just like those 13 colonies, can and should again lift its head and stand among the nations."
Daniel Miller
"The virus is a metaphor. It is a living symbol of the completely incorrect view that governments can control the world. It is a further embodiment of the pretensions of elite opinion-makers that their wishes alone could control reality. The scientific elite too indulged in this pretense of control.
The virus shattered all this, in an oddly similar way to H.G. Wells’ War of the Worlds. Humanity tried everything to stop the invaders. It was finally a virus that disabled them. It’s a lesson for the ages: there are some forces of nature that are more powerful than badges, belligerence, and bullets."
Jeffrey Tucker
"The more a society prospers, the more potential return there is for the goofy in stepping forward to corrupt and take over that society, the more incentive there is for the goofy. Also, the more incentive there theoretically should be for the upright. Though, in a period of great prosperity, the upright tend to grow comfortable and lazy and forget how much they have to lose by behaving negligently with their birthright of freedom and prosperity.
Goofy is a gentle euphemism for evil. Evil is the more correct way to describe the goofy ideas that are being pushed upon us."
Alan Stevo
"One vital piece of information that needs to be understood is the fact that no such thing as SARS CoV-2 (Covid-19) has ever been isolated, separated, identified; nor has there been any attempt to satisfy Koch’s Postulates to verify that such a virus exists. Given this information, no variant of any unidentified (non-existent) 'virus' can mutate and harm. But then, logic has disappeared from view for most all in this country and the world, so fear of these made-up monsters continues in the now confused and ignorant general public.
Currently, there are thousands of claimed variants; many that are supposedly deadlier than the original fake virus. A few of the most recent have been called by the criminal WHO — the UK variant, the South African Variant, and the India variant; now renamed respectively, the Alpha, Beta, and Delta variants. And the hoax continues."
Gary D. Barnett
"American progressives not only refuse to let go of virus panic, they seem prepared to live with it forever. Holders of that philosophy might be the first in modern history to demonstrate all the signs of embracing – almost enjoying – a tragedy because it serves them personally and politically.
A true progressive enjoys two socio-political positions beyond all others: telling others what to do, and being told what to do. Covid-19 presented the perfect environment for both roles to flourish with impunity. The left’s heroes swooped in with untested and often unsupported policies to shut down economies and educational systems regardless of pandemic status. There they were each day on local TV, applauding themselves for their swift and decisive crippling of daily life."
John Scott Lewinski
"It may seem a stretch to suggest that the Left is leading us back to the pre-Enlightenment, given its corporate wealth, academic monopolies, Silicon Valley technological wizardry, and progressive sanctimoniousness. But arrogance, wealth, and received authority are always the super-spreaders and force-multipliers of false knowledge, and none more so than in the present age."
Victor Davis Hanson
"You are now seeing very intense arguments between people who believe in one party's message over the other. They do not realize they are arguing over table scraps fed to them by the elites. This type of propaganda is not Left vs. Right. It is total warfare against your mind. It is the language the elites use to make people fight with each other so they can profit and stay in power.
Republicans claim to have the corner on genuine conservatism, much as Democrats claim to have the corner on genuine liberalism. Both claims are untrue but are perceived as true thanks to mass deception. Today's conservatism and liberalism are but twin pincers of the same, dynamic, ever-changing, collectivist dialectic."
Bob Livingston
"The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error."
John Stuart Mill
"Some people think the Federal Reserve Banks are US government institutions. They are not… they are private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of the US for the benefit of themselves and their foreign and domestic swindlers, and rich and predatory money lenders. The sack of the United States by the Fed is the greatest crime in history. Every effort has been made by the Fed to conceal its powers, but the truth is the Fed has usurped the government. It controls everything here and it controls all our foreign relations. It makes and breaks governments at will."
Louis Thomas McFadden
"We should be quite skeptical when states impose the opinion of minorities on the majority through special programs in schools and elsewhere. Such programs likely involve 'positive discrimination' against particular groups, consistent with state objectives.
In fact, discrimination is precisely what is involved in the teaching of critical race theory in schools, the military, the intelligence agencies, and in other government agencies today. Critical race theory is a minority opinion that even most blacks do not agree with. It is being foisted on the majority to establish discrimination against 'whites,' in order to destroy a political contingent deemed inimical to the Democratic Party–run state. It is a means for marginalizing oppositional elements and driving others into the voting ranks of the Democratic Party by means of ideology. The state imposition of minority opinion does not serve minorities."
Michael Rectenwald
"Have you noticed that no matter what the social collapse in blue states, no matter the violence against white people, no matter the boarded up stores, the people fleeing to red states, no matter the swiftly rising crime rate in blue cities, there is still no complaint. The official position of the Democrats, white liberals, and presstitutes is that only blue states are free of white supremacy. Only blue states are morally fit for life. If so, why the massive flight from blue states?"
Paul Craig Roberts
