America is losing the soul of its allies and keeping your distance will only help so much. You need to keep calling out nations such and Canada, the U.K and others when they spit on their own laws that their soldiers and Americans lost so many for the West to enjoy.



Podcaster Joe Rogan criticized the American media for focusing on late-night host Jimmy Kimmel instead of what he called a dangerous erosion of free speech in the United Kingdom.

Kimmel’s comments about conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin led to his show being briefly suspended, sparking a wave of backlash as an example of censorship.

Rogan argued that focusing on a single talk-show host was a distraction from what he described as the U.K. and Europe’s crackdown on speech. The British government has faced criticism for its proposed digital ID mandate, which detractors warn could be used for government control.




Joe Rogan argued that Americans are focusing on petty issues like the commentary of late night host Jimmy Kimmel and not the descent of the United Kingdom into what he called an "Orwell Nightmare" that is arresting citizens for online speech.

Rogan pointed to the reported 12,000 arrests a year for social media posts in the U.K. "The fact that our mainstream media is relatively silent on this is insane," Rogan said. "You're seeing a complete total attack on one of the most fundamental principles of the Western world, which is your ability to express yourself…"

I will not visit the UK because of their intolerance over free speech.

They are the founders of the Magna Carta, hundreds of years ago. How are they backsliding so quickly?
 
Yet another reason America needs to stay the hell out of European wars.
 
Opposing the right of Pakistani men to gang rape British children is considered hate speech and will not be tolerated in Britain.
 
Free speech gives Kimmel the right to say whatever he wants short of inciting crime; it gives Rogan the right to think whatever he wants, and it gives me the right to think either or both of them are assholes.
