Firing Line with Margaret Hoover on PBS thought she could corral and reaffirm her biases with a real intellectual that was persecuted and understands completely how media is used against you by a corrupt regime.



For most of her interview she's asking questions that are basic and attempting to put him in a corner. She's smiling at him when she describes his actions against his government, he's making a case for Julian Assange though. A real person with firsthand knowledge of authoritarian strangleholds schools her. He uses Education , Art and real circumstances to back up how her assertions were wrong and how her occupation is nothing but a tool corrupt regimes use against their populace. When he describes the West he all but state's "Let's Go Brandon" and that we're weak and have already gotten steamrolled by China.

This is an important interview but not for the reasons she thought. The script was flipped on her and she had no idea. Blankly smiling while trying to pigeonhole him with words. He's more of an action man. Actions speak louder than words. She's no Buckley either!

I do not trust one word the talking heads say. They have been gaslighting the truth for a long time trying to create group think. They have succeeded to the point where double speak is pervasive.

No matter what you believe the time has come to choose to be a wolf and not a lemming.

Weiwei sounds like a dangerous EXTREMIST comparing politically correct wokeness in America to the Cultural Revolution in China. He's definitely a threat to the progtard regime, saying stuff like “In many ways, you’re already in the authoritarian state, You just don’t know it.”

I'm sure he must be on the domestic terrorist watch list now. 😰

^Oh, I know it... when gov't tells you to stay inside, close your business, and dictates who is essential and who is not?

Is that not authoritarian? Yet most can't see it.

It's inconvenient to think on your own and to get off the couch. So, they don't.

She soooo wanted to trip him up, instead he was allowed to open the trap of Truth wider. You could almost hear the snap when she brings Trump into the fray to be rebuffed.

Oh wait...she didn't ask him the same question about Joey B. did she? Just an innocent oversight I suppose. 🤔

Regardless, his answer "if you are authoritarian you would have to have a system supporting you. you cannot just be an authoritarian by yourself. But certainly the United States in today's condition, you could easily have an authoritarian."

He's right, a dicktator has to have the supportive political apparatus and bureaucracies, and sympathetic academics and media behind him to make excuses for his authoritarian edicts or just look the other way and hope the booboisie don't catch on.

Dude, don't rain on my parade. Working at Wally World makes me an essential worker - a title that is shared by liquor store employees, convenience store employees and the like. We are essential to the fabric of this country.

I'll have to update my resume to reflect this achievement under the section of additional qualifications or sumptin'.

"Certified and successfully fulfilled duties as a Federally Approved Essential Employee." If I draft it right and wordsmith it right, I can make it sound like I defend the country, in a support role, from a hostile invader.

DMV, thanks for posting that. I enjoyed watching it, although hearing him speak made me wonder why so many others in the US don't see his reality...

I get a pass, mostly. My county has a sheriff that won't enforce any of the stupidity and I used to work for him. In my town, when I am out and about, the percentage of mask/no mask is like 10% to 90%.

My wife is one of the 10%. And she's already had 2 jabs. lol

Good thing she's pretty. 😱

In my county the mask on ratio is 95/5. Masks are still required indoors and restaurants are supposed to check your Covid passport and ID. Prolly 50% check the passport but I doubt read it, 0% check an ID. The county went after In-N-Out hard to make an example so they closed indoor dining.

Gyms were checking diligently. The daughter had a negative test that she just kept editing until she qualified as vaccinated and she had Covid a year ago and there is still no allowance for immunity. Still gotta get vaccinated.

Hell, people drive alone in cars with masks on because apparently we have a variant that lives on car visors and jumps on people.
