It's bad enough that Joe Biden, a presidential candidate from one of our nation's two major political parties, has been exposed as the financial beneficiary of dirty dealings with foreign adversaries. The thought of such a corrupt individual at the head of our government is chilling.
But what is even more frightening is that no mainstream media outlet--except for the courageous New York Post, which broke the story--will cover any part of this earthshaking news. Social media outlets such as Facebook and Twitter firmly shut down dissemination of any information that might negatively impact the election of Joe Biden--and the voters be damned.
This is exactly what Pravda did in the old Soviet Union, and what the Peoples Republic of China does to its news agencies today. It is what every dictatorship does to control the news and keep citizens in the dark. Now it's happening here, quite openly, defiantly, even proudly. The message is clear: Screw you, voters--we'll decide what you can see or hear. We'll make up your minds for you, whether you like it or not. We, the media and the political elites, know best.
This is flat-out tyranny, and the United States at this moment is on the brink of falling fully under its iron grip. Don't think it can't happen--it is happening. It has happened, and very quickly. Just as my in-laws, who fled Soviet Communism with the clothes on their backs and spent years as homeless refugees, saw it happen; just as my next-door neighbor, who fled Vietnamese Communism in a croweded, creaky boat that miraculously brought her and her son to America, experienced it--it happens in a flash. Tyranny's fist falls fast and hard, and those who thought it was a wild exaggeration suddenly find themselves forever trapped in its controlling talons.
George Orwell, a modern-day prophet, described our current peril perfectly in his classic dystopian novel, 1984. Read the excerpt below and decide for yourself if we are not now living in the same nightmarish reality of censorship and suppression:
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
