I would like to remind all of you that you are free and thankfully, we defeated the totalitarian Adolf Hitler so you can enjoy this freedom.

The following is just a glitch:

Police said the arrest should act as a warning that offensive videos would not be tolerated.

…“The clip is deeply offensive and no reasonable person can possibly find the content acceptable in today’s society.”

He added: “This arrest should serve as a warning to anyone posting such material online, or in any other capacity, that such views will not be tolerated.”

How did we get here? This is full totalitarianism: post the wrong thing, get arrested, and become unemployable for life, which is why they arrested him and put his name in every newspaper, of course.

Who cares about the video. It may be deeply stupid and offensive. It would never occur to me to watch it, anyway. But: we are arresting people for posting videos now? How did we fall so far?

With its bluster about democracy and freedom, and inability to render a functional version of either, Western Civilization has become merely comedic.

This comical farce shows the descent of intelligent people into the black hole of their own thinking, because once the principle of reality-denial (called “equality”) is erected, everything else becomes satire-worthy nonsense as well.

The reason for this comedy is that we seem oblivious to the fact that our society has come full circle. We denied the need for kings, then made little tyrant-kings out of ourselves. We wanted freedom, and instead what we have gotten is the regulation of freedom. We demanded justice and got underdogs used as a weapon against normalcy. We claim to be enlightened and educated but really we are propaganda-bots.

At this point, the toilet bowl lid is closed. The lever is being depressed, and the water is swirling. It is dark and stinky. But no one wants to be the first to notice the metal tunnel into the ground that is our fate. Keep swimming, buy something, and maybe it will all be alright.
