It is ironic that just today I posted an article about the paramount importance of free speech, which numerous government bureaucracies and large corporations in the West seek to suppress in their purported endeavor to police “hate speech.” (I assure you there’s not even a trace of hate speech in my book).
And just today one of the great media behemoths, Amazon.com suppressed my book (as I expected they would).
The subject of my book is Bill Browder, the devious protagonist of one of the most dangerous hoaxes that have been perpetrated on the people and public institutions in the West.
It is dangerous because it’s vastly exacerbated the new cold war between the U.S. and Russia. This agenda is obviously important enough that you are not allowed to know the truth about it. If left unchallenged, Bill Browder and the people behind him might yet take us into a hot war against Russia. They will burn the world down before allowing you to learn the truth about their criminal plunder of Russia.
Here’s how it works: Browder and his team learned about my book. Then they had their legal counsel Jonathan M. Winer request Amazon to delist my book. He claimed that the book may contain defamatory content.
If I may not speak my mind freely lest I defame someone, then any criminal with money to pay lawyers and public relations firms can stand above scrutiny and deny everyone else the freedom to express an opinion they dislike.
So any scumbag with money can stand untouchable; all they need to do is claim that they feel defamed, have a lawyer draft a letter, and whatever offends them disappears down the memory hole.
Indeed, freedom of expression should be sacred. Without it, we are again vulnerable to manipulation and propaganda that has led to very tragic outcomes in the last century. This can happen when the voices of ordinary people are suppressed while the good and the great can speak freely, free to garnish and airbrush their public image unmolested.
