If you want to know who really has the power in this world just see how no one in public is allowed to speak on certain things, whether they are MPs in parliament, guests on TV, or otherwise. If I questioned Hamas "slaughtering 1400 Israeli civilians" in public or with coworkers, or worse yet, said you get what you deserve, I would 100% lose my job, and probably ruin my highly specialised career.

So presumably everyone else has to do a lot of sef-censorship as well?

    Nah, cuz i don't have any reason to go all "commie" around the people i work with. I generally consider proselytizing with labels to be useless to change people's minds so i play with concepts that are universally accepted or twist the words already in use by big prop to my ends. My end goal is neuron activation. I want people questioning narrative handed to them because my personal belief is tanking em up is a few steps past what an MSM-pilled person is ready to swallow

      this is it. as soon as you label yourself "anarchist" or "communist," you've handed people a trash bin that says "put all my new or uncomfortable ideas here"

      just focus on the ideas and people will be way more open-minded

      There isn't usually a strong motivator to bring politics up at the workplace for me, but occasionally it comes up. Sadly when it does I have to draw the line short before my own opinions.
