I just wrote a stack on how massive government is eating the American Dream. The dream was small government regulating the worlds most powerful machine of small businesses. We are now an oligarchy trampling civil liberties in the name of massive government and over regulation. Berenson is absolutely right, we cannot rely on having good oligarchs… we need to deconstruct the largest bureaucracy in human history and return the power to the people - and that requires that the Bill of Rights once again mean something

Alex, you realize this battle you're waging isn't just for your right to free speech, it's for all of America. I don't think that I'm overstating that. You have the ammunition and the smarts to pluck the little bird and you have the support of those of us that love our country, no matter what the media or the Marxist try to propagandize on the issue. We stand with you; I want to wish you the best of luck but really right is on your side so a little luck can't hurt but you got this. Kick their ass.

Pro Elon people are treating him as some sort of freedom of speech God. Anti Muskers thought Twitter was a bastion of democracy before he bought it - you know when it was controlled by dodgy hedge funds and investors. The reality is, it's a business and is being used to make money and harvest your data. You may be able to say more what you want with Elon in charge but harvesters gonna harvest.

One billionaire like Musk can’t protect our constitutional rights but he can definitely help in the fight when you consider dozen’s of billionaires are using their money and subsequent powers to decimate our constitutional rights. We need more billionaires like Musk willing to stand up for us. Taking on the communists is a high dollar endeavor and if Musks intent is as he has stated we should all be grateful for him and his actions. It’s quite ironic a foreign born person is stepping up like no other to help save America, unlike the greedy American billionaires

Have you seen the articles on Obama and Clinton pushing the Digital Services Act Package through the United Nations?, which would create several EU regulations on the Internet, including a law to forbid alleged disinformation. Ironic, the two biggest purveyors of misinformation pushing for so called democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.

If this goes through none of us will be protected from the speech police. Twitter followers have been losing their minds because we might be able to debate, criticize the regime, ask questions and god forbid use our own minds to see what is true and is not. What is more ironic, their very actions have caused millions of us to lose whatever trust we had in the very organizations that are supposed to protect us.

"Yes, California, ultra-liberal California."

TBF, "liberal" meant something other than a foot soldier for the corporate army many years ago.

First, those White Men who wrote the Constitution--the ones whose statutes are being removed, vandalized, and otherwise desecrated--were geniuses. The Constitution stands the test of time.

Second, I seem to recall that the federal medical bureaucrats, back in early 2020, attempted to impose "pandemic" restrictions and some states slapped back. Others not only played along but in same cases were more ridiculous. But that's on them--and those voters need to slap 'em down. That is also why the Chief Medical Midget needs to be ridiculed, exposed, and ignored.

Third, never in my lifetime have I seen such a clear demarcation between states--red/blue; liberal/conservation; screwball/sensible. The problem exists for those of us whose politics are incompatible with our ZIP codes. Relocating is not always an option, but at least it's Out There.

Finally, good luck, Alex. Kick ass & take names!

Wishing you much luck! And since I am in CA and Nextdoor is also in CA, I am wishing I had taken Nextdoor to court for censoring my 100% accurate statistics about the low risk of Covid to children. Either way, when you win, I will be happy to forward the news to Nextdoor informing it that it broke the law when it violated my right of free speech on its platform.

The US Constitution used to be a document of enumerated powers, now it is a document of enumerated liberties with only the Bill of Rights left as a backstop. Every 3rd grader once knew this. The Commerce Clause decisions emasculated it. Wickard v Filburn in particular.

Competition between the states was key and hopefully it will be again.

Competition in the world is now key which is why the Biden Admin and similar elites around the world want a worldwide tax and worldwide rules. No competition means no escape from their boot.

One hopes that Alex is waking up to this, based on this post, perhaps he is.

Thank you for this! For not giving up

The way I see it, we have a garden of power to protect our constitutional rights. It is our national politicians.

Today though that garden is filled with garbage and weeds preventing the flowering of protection that the American people need. We have Kevin MaCarthy quoted as demanding that social media ban Republicans he sees as somehow supporting the "insurrection". Until we rid ourselves of these DC swampy bits of garbage and weeds we will continue to have this problem.

It seems to me that we are going to need a convention of the states. There are 24 states that are solid Republican with 7 a toss-up. 34 states are required. So with a couple of moderate Dem states, or even hard liberal states that have items they want to see addressed, we can get this done. And term limits needs to be front and center. I also think we need a commission that reports to a panel of governors elected by the governors that is like a grand jury that investigates conflicts of interest of federal politicians and senior federal government employees.

If our national politicians are not protecting our constitutional rights, then we should throw the bums out.
