“It is not worth the while to go round the world to count the cats in Zanzibar” - Henry David Thoreau
Any of you junkies ever read The Probability Broach?
Whether you have, or you haven’t, try this.
Government can’t fight crime, government is crime.
“Illegitimate authority” is redundant.
The state is harmful to children and other living things.
I am not a national resource.
I have sworn on the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.

Free speech is about the state dictating what is or is not acceptable, it is not about free people freely expressing contempt for contemptible behaviour.
Refusal to finance a platform for thugs to spew their venomous bile does not constitute censorship.
Financing a platform constitutes support.
paraphrased from Lord Vetinari
"I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue."

Here’s an old friend of mine.
He was quite graphic when I knew him.
Part of a poetry and synthesiser band named
Sex, Poof and Trouble.
And when he and Malcolm used to do poetry readings,
fistfights broke out!
Well It was better than Wordsworth I can tell you.
