Summary:

Fact - checking is no longer because the election was a tipping point in terms of free speech.

Translation:

We are jumping (back) on the Propaganda Express.

Bastardization of Free Speech:

Nothing will ever convince me that the framers intended half the population and all of the media and communication sources to be allowed to flat out lie.

“It Can’t Happen Here:”

Yeah, it can, and it is. Make no mistake. This is how the Holocaust started. It ended millions of lives and a world war later.

What Do We Do:

Start weaponizing our own speech in sexy ways that appeal to algorithms, buy our own propaganda factories and make them attractive to the poorly educated. Arm up so we can protect ourselves from the government- The answer to the bastardization of the first amendment, might actually be in the proper use of the second amendment.
