Thanks Michael, wonderful reporting. After watching the House Committee on Censorship hearings, I am afraid that Congress is more interested in infighting and covering up missteps than addressing these real existential issues. Morgan Chase has also begun closing the bank accounts of organizations that are critical of the current administration and current U.S. policy.

You certainly deserve kind words. I am working with all haste to get to a place where I can get into the conversation with regard to how we organize ourselves as societies.

I cannot believe how dystopian the Democratic party has become. Can't believe the level of censorship that has risen up over the last ten years, started with 9/11 and the Global War on Terror.

I don't know if you have used ChatGPT, but if you play with it for a moment you will see that unless this technology allows for unfettered access to information, it could easily become the instrument that ushers in permanent autocracy. https://chat.openai.com/ This can be a great learning tool or a horrible propaganda tool.
