Yet Biden had inherited from Trump a secure border, an economy rebounding after the COVID quarantines, 1.23% inflation, no wars abroad, and cheap energy...
We are all familiar by now with the various efforts that are underway to govern what we are allowed to say, and share, online.
But this is a much bigger problem than is commonly perceived – it goes far beyond the ‘mere’ suppression of misinformation or disinformation, as misguided and dangerous as that effort is...
Increasingly, those who govern us simply take the view that it would be better if we had the minimal necessary supply of curated information, carefully vetted by experts, in order that we should arrive at the decisions they deem to be appropriate...
