NEW PODCAST- CJ HOPKINS
CJ's return, Farage debanked plus Bobby Kennedy Jr. and the trouble with heroes.
Hello, Critical Thinkers — a new and better plan for our community today! We’ll be linking to our weekly podcasts here so you can comment and meet each other. This week, from Berlin, the great CJ Hopkins, a Hunter Thompson for our times, returns after a week in London. He was with Matt Taibbi, Michael Shellenberger and Russell Brand — all plotting a response to the Censorship Industrial Complex. This is something that affects us all, especially here in Canada as the Iron Curtain is lowered by our Prime Minister, supported by failing legacy media who push more propaganda as their last chance for survival. Lying to the people is always a bad business plan.
Covid-19 exposed them all. It could have been their finest hour but instead they went all-in against us. Dissidents were not tolerated and you’ll recall the Toronto Star selling hate against the unvaccinated. It was approved by the editorial staff, or it wouldn’t have run, meaning it reflects the culture at this dying paper. And they wonder why readers have turned away.
It will stand in the annals of propaganda with the most disturbing examples in history and sadly, the people at The Star who produced this monstrosity thought they were being public spirited. The root of much evil.
The Star and National Post are in talks in an attempt to avert mediacide — so dire are their futures. Maybe they should just hire some old-school journos to sort them out, stop the working from home and encourage critical thinking.
CJ was not feeling well, but rose to the occasion. I like him a lot and felt in the presence of a superior mind with both a sense of humour and a slicing wit. Enjoy and do comment. That’s the fun part!
Oh, and anyone who was at the Toronto Tears for Fears concert, feel free to offer a review. I was devastated to learn I’d missed it. Everybody Wants to Rule the World has a new meaning these days.
There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I'll be right behind you
CJ.s essay on his trip to London is here
Daily Mail on the debanking of Nigel Farage and others who challenge trans extremism and the New Normal agenda. Keep using cash, people!
Stay Critical!
Trish, you mentioned wanting to understand a bit more of from where RFK Jr is coming. If you haven’t already, check out Joe Rogan’s and Jordan Peterson’s recent interviews with him. In particular, Jordan Peterson expressed a different opinion about climate change and a good discussion ensues from that. Personally, while I have decided that I should not be looking towards politicians and institutions to “save” me (that’s MY job), Bobby Kennedy may well be the one person I could support based in the majority of his views and approaches to all of the various challenges we are facing. I am both a Canadian and a U.S. passport holder, so I would love to see Kennedy defeat Biden. In the absence of that, I could not vote for either Biden or Trump - two damaged and corrupt individuals who should be in therapy, not the White House. At least in Canada I am very clear that I will vote against Trudeau as to me, he is the most dangerous politician in any Western democracy at the moment.
We are truly living in troubling times. There is not a day goes by that I do not wonder where all this is going and where we will be if it does not stop. The leftist censorship ideology is everywhere. If you don't buy into it, or challenge it, if you are not cancelled you are attacked particularly in the media if you have a public persona. Take for example Premier Blaine Higgs in New Brunswick. He went out on a limb to do the right thing, and make it policy that schools must tell parents if their child (under 16) comes out trans at school and changes their names and pronouns. This essentially overturned the existing policy that said parents were not to be told about such a monumental change in their child. Higgs took a beating from the opposition party and even memers of his own party and caucus. Hard to imagine something as and sane as parents knowing if their child is suffering from a mental illness--because that is what gender disphoria is--of perhaps it is because they have been heavily influenced by teachers pushing this crazy ideology on them daily. Higgs stood his ground and now parents in New Brunswick will be told when something like this occurs. Trudeau had to come out and throw some gas on the fire--calling Higgs a far right political actor 'inflicting cruelty and isolation on vulnerable people'. Then good Trudeau hack Rosemary Barton decided to interview Higgs on the issue on her Sunday morning, little watched TV show, Rosemay Barton Live. It wasn't an interview, it was an attack and a take down. It made me so angry I did a substack on it. https://roxannehalverson.substack.com/p/cbcs-rosemary-barton-hits-all-the But these are the times we are living in and I am not sure if and how we change them. Trish mentioned that her sons so not see what we see and the dangers we face. My 27 year old daughter does, she is already worried about Bill C-18. I worry about the future we will leave this generation. It is good to see high profile people like Matt, Russell and Michael fight back. But with the US weaponizing the DOG and IRS against descenters like Matt it can certainly have a chilling effect. I recently discovered the the TD Bank, my bank, donated a half million dollars to for gender affirmation care for CHILDREN!! at the McMaster Children's Hospital's Pediatric Gender Diversity Program and that they also sponsored a disgusting 'art' exhibit where a grown man, spoutingsome garbage about white privilege and transgenderism stripped down naked, exposing himself to children attending the event, at the Quebec Museum of Civilization. I thought about going to my local bank to express my displeasure with this, but now seeing what has happened to Nigel Farage it makes one think twice. I also recently watched a Rebel News report where a woman was expelled from a Shoppers Drugmart because she wanted to register her disgust with Maybelline who have chosen Dylan Mulvaney to market their products. She didn't even want her money back, she just wanted to give them back. She was ousted and the police arrived and she was charged with tresspassing. You can't make this stuff up.
