We live in a culture that loves the Fruits of Christianity. But is busy poisoning the tree they grew from. We love human rights. We love scientific progress. We love freedom of conscience, equal dignity, and moral outrage at injustice. But secular thought wants to pretend those…
My friends, a new MEGATHREAD has arrived! In 40 tweets I’ll explain 40 useful concepts you should know. Reading time: ~7 minutes. Value: potentially a lifetime! Thread:
We need industrial policy to make sure we have the following industries: 1. Electric motors 2. Batteries 3. Power electronics 4. Semiconductors Those are the four things you need to fight and win a modern war. They also let you manufacture a huge variety of products.

Many take free speech for granted because they assume it’s the norm, but for most of history, people never had it, and in most of the world, people still don’t. It’s the result of vigilantly keeping nature at bay—a faint candleflame that endures only as long as it’s protected.
Free speech is the counterweight—it is the check on government control. That is why censorship is the authoritarian’s dream.
I was also mad when the Biden admin was "jawboning" social media companies, but according to some people, I shouldn't be mad at this because other people who weren't mad at that are also mad about this.
When you talk about people, when you judge them (not that we should be judging) consider them in the context of their environments and against the totality of their sins and virtues, with thoughtful regard to each. If you are not doing that, then be content to acknowledge you…
The US Constitution was written by people who had hope that a large collection of humans with a broad and diverse background of experiences and belief could form a union. They did not live in a time of peace and harmony yet they had this hope.

When it comes to speech, there is: Shouldn’t (Bad) Mustn’t (Unthinkable) Can’t (Illegal) If broadly celebrating political murder of national figures is merely “Shouldn’t”, we will end up with “Can’t”. Free speech is **all** about “Mustn’t”. We bet all of society on “Mustn’t”.

I have to admit. You’ve persuaded me that neither the right nor the left can be trusted with protecting civil liberties. So, alas, it seems the only solution is a system of checks and balances on limited govt with a federal govt with only specifically enumerated powers.
Whatever you believe, it should be helping you become a better person, not a worse person. It's very simple: if your beliefs justify cruelty, violence, prejudice, weakness, and generally destructive behavior, you have bad beliefs.
Whether it's 9-11, Covid, Floyd or Kirk, whenever there's a tier-one crisis, the proposed solution from the top is always censor, surveil, control.
@BulwarkOnline "Hate speech" is the rake that everyone steps on once they get in power
In this country, the government cannot dictate what we are and are not allowed to say and think about the news of the day.
Wait, and now we're doing compelled speech, too? 303 Creative, Masterpiece Cakeshop ... WHAT IS GOING ON?!?

This has been stated so many times. I never understand why it's difficult to understand. Same with all the other Rights (4th, 5th, 6th amendments) eroded over the last 25 years since the Patriot Act and its follow ons. Maybe you trust the guy in power now, what about in 10 years?

Partisanship is a leading corrupting force!
My feed has been overwhelmed with clips of Charlie Kirk saying all sorts of things. Some noble, some not so much. Many out of context. The reality is that someone is more than just a clip that captures them at their worst, or their best.
