[00:30] Global War on Free Speech (34 minutes)

Why is there a global war against freedom of speech? Despite the First Amendment, the U.S. government and propaganda media believe that only the “right” kind of speech should be protected. The state of Washington is setting up a hate speech hotline where callers can receive up to $2,000 for snitching on people who offend them. Ireland is working on a bill that would criminalize even the possession of materials considered to be hate speech. In Canada, you can be arrested if the government believes you might use hate speech or commit a hate crime in the future. Trumpet editor in chief Gerald Flurry exposed the importance of this issue in his recent Trumpet article “The EU’s War on Free Speech.”
