Oh ****. The Free Speech thread is earning its name.

Hate speech with a valid threat violates someone else's right to safety, does it not? That's where the line gets drawn and it rarely happens on a governmental level, and it also puts the burden of proof on the government.

Freedom of the press is only censored by the government if there are secrets in them, and even then there's not much they can do about it. There is a lot of censorship within the press itself for myriad reasons that change from one source to another.

Hate speech is unconstitutional bro. ( I meant to answer you days ago brother.) The very idea that you can be locked up for your words, and thoughts is a very slippery slope it gets into thought crime territory. Last time I checked words only hurt feelings. And as long as what you are saying isn't killing, jailing, or taxing someone it's perfectly legal. It doesn't mean you aren't free to walk away from someone spewing the ****. But it's perfectly legal for people say what they want to whomever they want, and the government can't step in, in any way.

Brother they censor the press that's laughable they direct the press on what to say. Because the media is part of the long arm of big brother. It's part of their propaganda machine. So when they kidnapped 9 members of the press during the 08 elections on a plane no less that's censorship. No sir that's shanghaied.

This is the only one I sorta agree with you on. Taxation of income is theft. The IRS, needs to be audited them damn selves. However I agree yes churches should be taxed on certain things. Land tax, and various city taxes. However, taxation on tithes, or donations from the congregation is unthinkable. It should be up to the church community to audit the pastors, of the church, because there is indeed separation between church and state. and the government has no say in that under the first amendment.

When the income tax was instituted, people saw it as madness, and they knew they were being stolen from. Blatant thievery! Income tax turns citizens into slaves. Taxation shouldn't go beyond a consumption tax.

I concur, the problem is most people don't see that they are ENSLAVED. And the constant brow beating reminder that you're free you're free is stuck in their minds.

The best part of this heist is that with the education system they get you to pay for your own enslavement.

and get you to love it. If this isn't straight outta brave new world I dunno what is.

So...If there is no income tax, how do you pay for socially used systems such as busses, the police, motorways, government, welfare, public schoolsector, etc. Just curious where you think the money should come from (or should these systems only be available to those that pay for them?)

RoxyRollah · 05-30-2016, 05:35 AM

We didn't start paying income taxes until '35 and we had all that jazz before.

THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU JUST SAID! THEY ARE TAXING US FOR WORKING. MAN WHAT THE ****. Oh wait are you one of those carbon taxers? I AM NOT PAYING TO BREATH thank you.

One need not browbeat, though. Just distract. Keep people distracted so they don't recognize their own slavery. Keep them so busy they never have a moment for self-reflection. Social media, television, internet....pretend bread and imaginary circuses.

Ikr you try and talk to people and they give the standard response...yea yea that's nice I live in the real world. Yeah you're right you do, but stop for 5 seconds and realized the system is set up so all you do is work, sleep, eat, and pray for a day off..... That's not a life.
