在 COVID-19 将世界转变为全球威权主义状态两年后，正如人们对严厉命令的容忍度似乎终于消退一样，我们正在为下一次分心和下一次经济消耗做好准备
Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes… known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few.… No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.” —
政府最近对消费者和“错误信息和恶意信息”传播者的打击扩大了网络，可能包括任何接触到与政府官方说法背道而驰的想法的人。
The U.S. government, which speaks in a language of force, is afraid of its citizenry. What we are dealing with is a government so power-hungry, paranoid and afraid of losing its stranglehold on power that it is conspiring to wage war on anyone who dares to challenge its authority. All of us are in danger. In recent years, the government
政府对围捕参加国会暴动的人的努力表明，我们所有人都非常容易受到监视状态的威胁，这种监视状态渴望像神一样意识到我们的生活。

唐纳德·特朗普发誓要排干华盛顿特区的沼泽，相反，他为游说者，公司和军事工业区铺平了道路。这就是乔·拜登（Joe Biden）不变的原因。

You want to defend the United States of America, then defend it with the tools it supplies you with—its Constitution. You ask for a mandate, General, from a ballot box.
这就是我们的沦为：暴徒。一个濒临戒严的国家。平民被软禁。一个拥有技术公司的国家行使其权力来固定该国的广大土地。还有破烂的宪法。
“In this difficult day, in this difficult time for the United States, it is perhaps well to ask what kind of a nation we are and what direction we want to move in. [Y]ou can be filled with bitterness, with hatred, and a desire for revenge. We can move in that direction as a country, in great polarization…filled with hatred toward one another. Or we

Joseph and his pregnant wife Mary traveled to the little town of Bethlehem so that they could be counted. There being no room for the couple at any of the inns, they stayed in a stable (a
