The Greatest Song In The History Of Humanity By The Greatest Singer In The History Of Humanity – Sarah Brightman – Running (HQ)

Posted on June 14, 2023 by Luke Ford

I was sad and I was silent
In shadow of my soul
Ever seeking the horizon
For promises untold
I dreamed of silent oceans
And I sang of waters blue
With the crossing of angels
Brought forth to guide me through
To a distant shore so welcoming
Where I was free to roam
In a land of ancient mystery
That I could call my own
This is me and you
And we are running
To change the world
Where hope is shining through
Gaia’s green and blue
And we are running
To save the world
That we’re about to lose
We’ll be running
Watch it coming
Green is shining through
Love is rising
World’s colliding
Green is shining through
Shining, shining, shining

Comment: “When the chorus of voices in the background is singing along with Brightman, it reminds me of ABBA, quite a bit.”

Do Free Societies Ever Start Wars With Tyrannies?

Posted on June 6, 2023 by Luke Ford

Dennis said that if Israel is a greater obstacle to peace than Hamas, it would be the first time in history that a free society wanted war.

In Athens vs Sparta, wasn’t Athens relatively free compared to Sparta and didn’t Athens launch the final war in that conflict?

The United States invaded Iraq in 2003. Iraq was a tyranny. America was a free country. And America started that war while Iraq posed zero threat to America.

The United States invaded Grenada in 1983 and Panama in 1989. Wasn’t this a free country invading tyrannies?

The United States intervened countless times in Latin America. Aren’t these more examples disproving Prager’s claim?

England and other European powers invaded countless poorer, less free, countries during the age of colonialism.

Here is Prager’s quote from the video above: “In modern history, every war has been between a free state and a police state or two police states. I can’t think of a 20th Century example of any other. Where in the world other than Israel does anyone ever argue that the free state doesn’t want peace and the police state wants peace? This would be the first free state in history to prefer war to peace.”

The United States invaded Afghanistan in 2001. Wasn’t that a free state going to war with a police state?

In the 1990s, the United States went to war with Serbia. Wasn’t that a free state going to war with a police state?

In the 1960s, the United States went to war against North Vietnam. Wasn’t that a free state going to war with a police state?

NPR: YouTube will no longer take down false claims about U.S. elections

Posted on June 4, 2023 by Luke Ford

Report:

YouTube will no longer remove videos falsely claiming the 2020 U.S. presidential election was stolen, reversing a policy put in place in the contentious weeks following the 2020 vote.

The Google-owned video platform said in a blog post that it has taken down “tens of thousands” of videos questioning the integrity of past U.S. presidential elections since it created the policy in December 2020.

But two and a half years later, the company said it “will stop removing content that advances false claims that widespread fraud, errors, or glitches occurred in the 2020 and other past U.S. Presidential elections” because things have changed. It said the decision was “carefully deliberated.”

“In the current environment, we find that while removing this content does curb some misinformation, it could also have the unintended effect of curtailing political speech without meaningfully reducing the risk of violence or other real-world harm,” YouTube said.

Since the 2020 election, I’ve made numerous posts and videos debunking voter fraud claims, but I’ve not left these videos up on Youtube because of the clumsy way it enforced its standard. It just wasn’t worth the aggravation.

Now that Youtube has changed its stance, and I’ve found the site has become steadily less censorious over the past 18 months, I just hung up a bunch of voter fraud videos that were previously on Rumble. Youtube has also relaxed its stands on “Covid misinformation.”
