Survivors of Soviet communism are warning the West is becoming totalitarian. Here’s a manual for resisting

BATON ROUGE , Louisiana , November 30 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — Baton Rouge is the hometown of American Conservative columnist and best-selling author Rod Dreher .
I live in Scotland , where the Justice Minister has proposed a “ Hate Crime ” law that could result in our prosecution for remarks we make in our own homes .
This is particularly alarming to me personally , for the definition of “ hatred ” these days is wide-ranging , and some believe that “ stirring up hatred ” includes stating that men who masquerade as women can be a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ men identify as “ lesbians.
” I have frequently said this at home , and now I am saying it in print .
Come and get me , copper .
Dreher ’ s Live Not by Lies : A Manual for Christian Dissidents is , therefore , of particular interest to me and , unfortunately , of particular interest to all of you LifeSiteNews fans .
The book ’ s aim is to give us tools for retaining our “ small-o orthodox ” faith in God , preventing our children from becoming Woke @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Lies currently gathering speed in the West .
It is , if you like , a companion volume to Dreher ’ s The Benedict Option , which aims at the same thing .
Live Not by Lies develops Dreher ’ s ideas by presenting us with heroic — and successful — models of Christian resistance to another Culture of Lies , the Moscow-based communist regime that ruled Eastern and most of Central Europe from 1945 until 1989 .
Dreher traveled throughout the area , interviewing Christians of different confessions who actively resisted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Czechoslovakia , and Romania .
Poignantly , Dreher reveals in his book that the Christian resisters who survived the era did not believe the Iron Curtain would fall during their lifetimes .
Their goal was not to survive communist totalitarianism but to be faithful to God and His truth .
Dreher ’ s project was sparked by a phone call from “ an eminent American physician ” whose Czechoslovak immigrant mother had warned him that the same circumstances that ushered in communist totalitarianism had begun to appear in the U.S .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the mob hysteria around the refusal of a pizzeria in small-town Indiana to cater a same-sex “ wedding.
” It wasn ’ t just the mob ’ s calls to burn the pizzeria down , but the fact that the so-called “ liberal ” elite , including the mainstream media , “ normally so watchful against the danger of mobs threatening the lives and livelihoods of minorities ” was unconcerned .
Dubious but curious , Dreher spent the next few years asking European survivors of communism if they thought America was drifting toward @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ What unnerves those who lived under Soviet communism is this similarity : Elites and elite institutions are abandoning old-fashioned liberalism , based in defending the rights of the individual , and replacing it with a progressive creed that regards justice in terms of groups , '' Dreher writes .
“ It encourages people to identify with groups — ethnic , sexual , and otherwise — and to think of Good and Evil as a matter of power dynamics among the groups .
A utopian vision drives these progressives , one that compels @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reinvent language to reflect their ideas of social justice.
” The main difference between the defunct Soviet regime and the growing Empire of Woke is that whereas the former featured the “ hard totalitarianism ” of physical violence , the latter employs the “ soft totalitarianism ” of so-called “ social justice ” ideology , cancel culture , surveillance technology beyond the commissars ’ wildest dreams , and permissive consumerism .
Dreher uses a literary metaphor to illustrate : half of Europe lived out George Orwell ’ s 1984 and now the West @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s Brave New World .
Dreher devotes the first part of his book to the Woke Revolution and how Big Business , especially Big Tech , signed on to it .
Although I was already familiar with the threat Big Tech presents to our liberties , I appreciated how lucidly Dreher presented the evidence .
If you haven ’ t already forbidden your children smartphones , you will after you finish reading Live Not by Lies .
You may also quit your shopping habit , turn down the thermostat , and start fasting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dreher convincingly argues , have made us weak and cowardly .
Part 2 provides the detailed testimony of what life back in the USSR and its European satellites was like under hard totalitarianism .
The stories of imprisonment are brutal .
What was done to priests and ministers is almost beyond belief — or would be beyond belief if we hadn ’ t read stories about state violence against martyrs under Diocletian , Henry VIII , and Mary Tudor .
But there are also important lessons about radical faith in God , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and close-knit , carefully parented families .
Dreher believes that uncompromising devotion to Christ , small communities , and loyal families will be absolutely necessary for living not by lies in the coming maelstrom .
Of course , the maelstrom may already be here .
Between beginning and ending this review , I saw footage of a man in England being arrested by masked police officers , apparently for walking down the street while chatting with strangers .
He resists by pulling away , and then breaks down into most un-English wailing .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ one of the many coronavirus lockdowns , and being manhandled by London bobbies has clearly pushed him over the edge .
Hearing a middle-aged Englishman scream for help as masked policemen surround him made my blood run cold .
“ I have no understanding of what ’ s going on , ” he cries .
Well , anyone who has read Live Not By Lies could tell him .
We ’ ve gone soft , soft as rotten apples , and too many people are willing to give up their rights , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a virus that spares 99.9 percent of its victims .
Dreher doesn ’ t address the pandemic in Live Not By Lies , but he has a lot to say about cowardice and what it can do to you .
But that ’ s a big lacuna , by the way .
One of the terrible ironies of reading Live Not By Lies during the lockdown is that public worship has , in many places , been cancelled or curtailed , elderly people are held separate from their families , and friends are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s homes .
Christian worship , kin , and community , Dreher ’ s proposed fortress against the lie , are therefore arguably even more difficult to preserve now to than they were in 1970s Poland .
Thus , if I had an issue with this book , it would be that Dreher did not pen an “ Afterword ” to discuss the role the unprecedented suspension of civil liberties in the West might play in speeding up soft totalitarianism .
And listening to a broken man wailing in the London street , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s going to be so soft .

PETITION UPDATE (12/11/2020)
Right before Thanksgiving, YouTube deleted a LifeSite video of a distinguished Canadian physician protesting the "unfounded public hysteria" over COVID-19 and accused us of spreading "medical misinformation."
Our account was suspended, and we were prohibited from posting videos on our YouTube channel for one week. And, while that may not seem like a big deal, it's a huge deal for a news organization like LifeSite.
Then, earlier this week, YouTube again suspended our account – this time for two weeks – over an episode of The Bishop Strickland Show wherein Bishop Strickland said he would not take an unethical COVID-19 vaccine.
We were able to appeal the suspension, and our request was granted.
This means that in YouTube's three-strikes-and-you're-out content-policing, idea-cleansing scheme, we are back down to one strike. But, we still face the threat of losing our account permanently.
And, we're not the only ones.
In a recent turn of events, YouTube just announced that it will remove videos alleging widespread voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
But, what is YouTube afraid of? The truth???
Thankfully, however, there is a one, big bright spot on the horizon: 48 states filed suit against Facebook just this week.
And, although this seems like a step in the right direction, the draconian measures which YouTube just rolled out, which are already wielded by Twitter, are an assault against free speech.
So, the fight for freedom of speech against Big Tech goes on. And, we must do everything we can to protect it!

PETITION UPDATE (11/18/2020)
Everyone thought the censorship by Big Tech corporations would decrease after the 2020 election, but the truth is that censorship is being felt just as much as it was before the election.
And, given the election outcome, perhaps Big Tech censorship now is even more consequential than it was before the election!
The two biggest social media platforms, Facebook and Twitter, and other Big Tech companies, are still censoring and suppressing stories and posts favorable to conservatives, and especially anything that has to do with election fraud.
Here are a few recent examples:
Women for America First organized the March for Trump on November 14, which was shut down by Facebook, MailChimp and Eventbrite. Despite Big Tech’s best efforts to cancel the event, the march went on and gathered a huge crowd.
Twitter has been suppressing a large number of President Trump’s Tweets. Most of his Tweets have been flagged arbitrarily with a warning stating: “This claim about election fraud is disputed."
Please READ this recent article about Big Tech's attempt to choke information conerning the recent Million MAGA March in Washington, DC: '5 things mainstream media won’t tell you about massive DC ‘Stop the Steal’ rally'
Then, please SIGN and SHARE this urgent petition, which calls on the Congress, the president, and governors to defend freedom of speech as Big Tech continues their rampant censorship.
PETITION UPDATE (10/15/2020)
In a remarkable development, Republican Senators Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham have announced that the Senate Judiciary Committee will be issuing subpoenas to Twitter's Jack Dorsey and Facebook's Mark Zuckerburg for their company's suppression of two critical expose news stories about how Hunter Biden and the Biden Family allegedly profited from business deals made because of Joe Biden's position as Vice President.
Please WATCH LifeSite's exclusive video of the announcement by Senator Ted Cruz below.
According to the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Senator Lindsey Graham, the subpoenas will be issued next Tuesday, for hearings to be held on Friday of next week.
This is a MASSIVE development, and should be welcomed by those who champion freedom of speech.
Again, this is all happening because Twitter and Facebook refuse to allow their members to share stories which would be favorable to conservatives.
Here's the timeline:
Yesterday, Twitter and Facebook suppressed a NY Post story about how Hunter Biden allegedly profited from introducing a Ukrainian businessman to his then-Vice President father, Joe Biden. The story also alleges that Vice President Biden then subsequently pressured Ukrainian authorities to fire a prosecutor who was investigating the businessman's company.
And, just this morning, Twitter suppressed another expose by the NY Post alleging that the Biden Family improperly profitted from deals made with one of the largest Chinese energy companies because of Vice President Biden's position in government.
But, right after the story broke, Senator Cruz tried to share the latest story on Twitter and was blocked. Twitter says that they are blocking the stories because they claim that the information was obtained illegally. However, Twitter showed no problem allowing illegally obtained information about President Trump's tax returns to be shared.
Please SIGN and SHARE this urgent petition, which calls on the Congress, the president, and governors to defend freedom of speech as Big Tech continues their rampant censorship.

PETITION UPDATE (9/17/2020)
Big Tech is out to kill free speech. LifeSite is out to protect it!
LifeSite has been digging deep into the many claims of liberal bias and selective censorship of pro-life, pro-family, and conservative voices on social media.
And, we are now launching our new series 'Uncensored: Big Tech vs. Free Speech', which will unpack how the actions of Big Tech censors actually affect conservative and Christian organization and individuals.
Please WATCH the first video in our series featuring Brigitte Gabriel, the Founder of ACT For America, one of the nation's premier national security grassroots organizations.
Ms. Gabriel's organization, ACT For America, has been targeted by Big Tech especially in the manipulation of search results.
Big Tech “think[s] they are God and they are exercising their godly power over everybody else,” Gabriel explained. "Because in today's world, anytime you want to find out any information about somebody, what do you do? Google. You go to the internet to find out some information about them. When you research anything about somebody, the first thing that comes up [in the search results] is the Southern Poverty Law Center’s labeling of ‘hate groups.’”
“And who are the ‘hate groups’? Family Research Council is a hate group because they are pro-family. American Family Radio is a hate group…LifeSiteNews is a hate group. My organization is a hate group because we sound the alarm about terrorism and protecting our constitutional freedom. And so they try to character assassinate you. And they control the language.”
LifeSite's research shows that Facebook, Google, YouTube, Twitter, and others have become far too dangerous for democracy.
They can and do sway elections and public opinion in whatever direction they want, primarily by manipulating search results, tracking our online behavior, and by blocking truthful content from their platforms.
Today, LifeSite is starting to fight back, with facts and with stories of conservatives and Christians who are being negatively impacted by Big Tech's liberal bias.
Please continue to follow our 'Big Tech vs. Free Speech' series which aims to launch a new video each week for the next eight weeks.
And, please sign our petition demanding that Big Tech monopolies are broken up. Thank you!

ORIGINAL PETITION BACKGROUND TEXT:
The outrageous erasing of the White Coat Summit from the internet is only the latest in a long series of brazen acts of censorship against conservatives and all those who support legitimate free speech.
You may agree or disagree with the efficacy of Hydroxychloroquine against the coronavirus, but everyone should agree on this point:
No Big Tech company should have the power to erase from the internet the medical opinions of licensed practicing doctors simply because they do not like what they have to say about the coronavirus or their experience treating it. Americans and other free peoples do not need leftist computer programmers deciding what the best course of medical treatment is for them.
Google/Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, Apple and their Big Tech friends want to control what you see, what you read, what you think, and ultimately, how you vote. Not only do they spend hundreds of millions of dollars on lobbying congress and buttering up big Washington DC think tanks, but now they brazenly and directly censor any content they don't want you to see.
Big Tech, like other interest groups, aggressively lobby to help their businesses thrive, but increasingly, Big Tech is using blatant internet censorship to impose its radical world view over those they consider to be "deplorables."
This must stop, but it won't unless we demand it as forcefully as legally possible. We believe that we have reached the point were Big Tech must be broken up if legitimate free speech is going to survive and continue to thrive on the internet.
Please sign our petition to demand real consequences for Big Tech's suppression of legitimate free speech.
In 2016, emails revealed by Fox News' Tucker Carlson proved that Google tried to influence the election by affecting voter turnout. Thankfully they failed. But they didn't give up. Instead, they have been preparing and testing how to manipulate information to continue to abuse their monopolistic power.
In 2018, Google/Youtube et. al. succeeded in manipulating the Irish abortion referendum by blacklisting pro-life videos, manipulating pro-life search terms and results and intentionally withholding pro-life information. Again, this is not an opinion or a conspiracy theory, Project Veritas obtained first hand information proving the intentional censorship by Big Tech.
And the Coronavirus has just made things worse. You see, scared people are more easily manipulated into giving up their freedom of speech. Children are being kept from going to school, tens of millions of Americans are out of work, and rioting has broken out in most major American cities.
Now, more than ever, freedom of speech is necessary to secure all of our freedoms. Freedom of speech is crucial to truly exercise the freedom to vote for the person that best represents one's own views, or the freedom to decide what course of medical treatment to accept - especially the decision to control what vaccines are administered to our children.
Some experts, like Dr. Robert Epstein, a behavioral psychologist who has testified before congress against Big Tech believes that we may already be too late to control Big Tech's tyrannical control over information.
President Trump took a step in the right direction with his Executive Order calling for increased regulation of Big Tech. But much more can be done and needs to be done right now.
In an era where almost everything is polarized, there is an overwhelming support for breaking up the Big Tech monopolies. A recent Pew poll found that 75% of Americans believe that Big Tech companies have too much influence.
It is time to bring serious accountability to Big Tech for their attempts to use their monopolies to kill free speech.
It is time to break up Big Tech.

lifesitenews--2020-11-30--Brazil President Bolsonaro: I ‘won’t take’ COVID vaccine, congress won’t make it mandatory

November 30 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) – Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro stated firmly last week that he would not take a COVID-19 vaccine his country may approve and he was “ sure ” that Congress would not make such a vaccine mandatory .
“ I 'm telling you , I wo n't take it ( the vaccine ) , ” he said Nov. 26 during a “ subjects of the week ” press conference .
“ It is my right.
” “ And I am sure that Congress will not create difficulties for whoever does n't want to take @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ Forcing people to take the vaccine or say that who doesn ’ t take it can not get a passport , have a public job , that ’ s dictatorship , ” the Brazilian president went on to say .
“ Whoever defends that is a dictator , or a false dictator that is willing to do business with the lives of others.
” Bolsonaro also criticized the use of masks to combat the spread of the virus , referring to them as a “ taboo ” that needs “ to fall.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ masks echo those of a growing body of doctors ( here and here ) — backed by recent peer-reviewed research — who make the case that masks are “ utterly useless ” at stopping the transmission of the virus .
The 65-year-old Brazilian president tested posted for COVID-19 in July .
He recovered in early August after spending three weeks in quarantine at the presidential palace .
“ I knew I was going to catch it someday , as I think unfortunately nearly everyone here is going to catch it eventually .
What @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to it , ” he said at the time .
“ I regret the deaths .
But people die every day , from lots of things .
That 's life.
” The country has recorded more than 6.3 million cases of COVID-19 with 5.5 million recoveries , according to Worldometers .
172,848 deaths have been attributed to the virus , according to the same source .
According to those statistics , Brazil currently trails India and the United States for number of deaths attributed to COVID-19 , making it the third worst hit @ @ @ @

People of goodwill can disagree about the safety, efficacy and religious implications of a new vaccine for the coronavirus.
But, everyone should agree on this point:
No government can force anyone who has reached legal adulthood to be vaccinated for the coronavirus. Equally, no government can vaccinate minors for the coronavirus against the will of their parents or guardians.
Please SIGN this urgent petition which urges policymakers at every level of government to reject calls for mandatory coronavirus vaccination.
Fear of a disease - which we know very little about, relative to other similar diseases - must not lead to knee-jerk reactions regarding public health, nor can it justify supporting the hidden agenda of governmental as well as non-governmental bodies that have apparent conflicts of interest in plans to restrict personal freedoms.
The so-called "public health experts" have gotten it wrong many times during the current crisis. We should not, therefore, allow their opinions to rush decision-makers into policies regarding vaccination.
And, while some people, like Bill Gates, may have a lot of money, his opinion and that of his NGO (the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation) - namely, that life will not return to normal till people are widely vaccinated - should not be permitted to influence policy decisions on a coronavirus vaccination program.
Finally, we must also not allow the rush by pharmaceutical companies to produce a new coronavirus vaccine to, itself, become an imperative for vaccination.
Unwitting citizens must not be used as guinea pigs for New World Order ideologues, or Big Pharma, in pursuit of a vaccine (and, profits) which may not even protect against future mutated strains of the coronavirus.
And it goes without saying that the production of vaccines using aborted babies for cell replication is a total non-starter, as the technique is gravely immoral.
However, if after sufficient study of the issue, a person who has reached the age of majority wishes to be vaccinated with a morally produced vaccine, along with his children, that is his business.
But we cannot and will not permit the government to make that decision for us.
Thank you for SIGNING and SHARING this petition, urging policymakers at all levels of government to reject mandatory coronavirus vaccination.

lifesitenews--2020-11-30--LGBT activists on Toronto Catholic school board pledge allegiance to Church teaching

TORONTO , November 30 , 2020 ( Corriere Canadese ) – It was flabbergasting , to say the very least .
Mark the date , time and location .
November 26 , 7:15 pm , the inaugural meeting of the TCDSB for academic year 2020-21 .
Following another week of denigrating , torqued accusations levelled at the Catholic Schools system by reneged radical activists and others , Trustees were asked to rise and renew their pledge to be faithful to the teachings of the Church , to the Primacy of the Roman Pontiff and the authority of the Magisterium ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ declined .
Their defiance would have immediately disqualified them from office .
Not even the infamous Gang of Four ( trustees Markus De Domenico , Norm Di Pasquale , Ida Li Preti and Maria Rizzo ) , despite their false bravura , demurred .
Scratch your head if you ’ re confused .
With that simple act , the Cardinal reaffirmed his authority over the Catholic nature of the TCDSB and his willingness to exert leadership on Catholic education .
He still needs to “ clean house , ” if he wants to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( Catholic ) Schools and ensure their survival .
And , not just in Toronto .
It was time to take control of the non-debate about the value of what is at the essence of the Catholic ethic : inclusivity , tolerance , acceptance , responsibility , mutual respect , dignity , and love toward others .
The Corriere Canadese is a secular newspaper .
It caters to people whose cultural heritage encompasses millenia of inter-relationships between Church , Family , School and the rights of individuals in the context of societal obligations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and School Boards have allowed radical advocates for an inimical ethos to set the agenda from within .
There is nothing in the Human Rights Code to suggest anything amiss in Catholicism .
In fact , under section 19.1 , it specifically says nothing in the code shall be interpreted as displacing the denominational rights of Catholic Schools .
The Education Act specifically tells the Minister he has no business in the affairs of the Catholic schools outside the secular curriculum on “ skills.
” The Constitution enshrines the mutual rights and obligations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a previous Interim Integrity Commissioner hired to bring a sense of sanity to the morass in corporate governance afflicting the TCDSB , was brutal in her frank assessment , even if she did not name names : some trustees ( and senior staff ) are out of control and are bullying the rest to get their way , to the point of usurping the authority of the Magisterium on religious matters , bypassing administrative law and due process to tar and feather a colleague who stands for the denominational obligations the Board exists @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been going on for more than a year , culminating in a Board meeting on November 11 whose outcome was best described by Trustee Crawford as an “ abominable ” moment in the history of Catholic education .
The conduct of the foul foursome above was vile , malicious and vindictive .
Too bad that some misguided others on the Board enabled them .
For an entire year , they permitted a radical element of the LBGTQ2+ community – a teacher in their schools – to heap scorn upon the Catholic Church , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” in the TCDSB , his employer .
Trustee De Domenico , described as misogynistic by one mother who called him out on his anti-Catholic , anti-Gospel responses to her emails , urged him on , as recently as November 22 , telling him he had his back .
That teacher/radical threatened to throw the Cardinal out of his class , if he dared show up .
Trustee Li Preti questioned the ability of the Cardinal to understand the Pope ’ s message on modern families , then proceeded to accuse her colleagues @ @ @ @ @ @ @ homophobia .
The Cardinal finally had enough when Trustee Di Pasquale interrupted the reading of an excerpt from the Catholic Catechism , in a Catholic environment , because Di Pasquale found the language was both “ dangerous ” and “ inappropriate.
” It is OK if you conjure up an image of Stalinist thought police .
In December 2019 , the gang of four caused an “ investigation ” to be conducted into the utterings of Trustee Del Grande during the course of an open and normal debate and to opine as to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ language .
The investigator firm specializes in workplace diversity and gender-based harassment issues – 16 of its 18 lawyers are female .
Its lead investigator , Michelle Bird , found that he had not .
However , she did not like his tone and his flippancy after the debate .
The Board ’ s outside legal counsel works for a firm specializing in advocacy for diversity issues .
There is never a moment when his advice is not predicated on Human Rights Code and dismissive of Catholic/denominational rights in the Constitution or in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pays him while it sidelines its own in-house legal counsel .
Trustee Rizzo invited MPP Kathleen Wynne , who lives in Alliston , is not Catholic , did not view or read the transcripts of the meeting investigated by Bird to weigh in against Del Grande and the TCDSB for its homophobia .
The Board has initiated an investigation into allegations of electoral fraud levelled against Rizzo , who , as an aside , admits to preferring the rock group the Beatles to Christ .
Thursday night , this motley crew swore allegiance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Catholicism .

For an entire year, they permitted a radical element of the LBGTQ2+ community – a teacher in their schools – to heap scorn upon the Catholic Church.

Thank you for signing this petition! Add your signature: Show Petition Text Country... State... Sign this Petition Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government has introduced a bill which threatens to seize control of online media content in Canada, putting liberty and freedom at risk. But, the Trudeau Liberals have no right to impose their party's ideology on the Canadian internet! Please SIGN this petition which tells the Trudeau Liberals, as well as the opposition, to leave the internet as a free speech zone! Bill C-10 is causing alarm bells to sound with conservative and Christians, who are concerned that it is the first step towards the destruction of independent online media in Canada. The Bill would require more "diversity and inclusion" content, reflecting the experience of "Canadians from racialized communities and Canadians of diverse ethnocultural backgrounds, socio-economic statuses, abilities and disabilities, sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, and ages." And, Bill C-10 would also give power to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to "assign penalties for non-compliance." With this frightening new power, Bill C-10 is a real threat to the freedom of speech of conservatives and Christians in Canada who engage with the entire world about their issues on the internet. Jay Cameron, a lawyer for the Canada-based Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms told LifeSite: "It is clear from recent statements by the PM and the Heritage Minister that the federal government wants to increase control and penalties for speech and content that is not approved of by the ideologues in the Liberal Party. Unsurprisingly, the purpose of Bill C-10 is not to increase freedom of ‘thought, belief, opinion, and expression’ (section 2(b) of the Charter) but to further restrict it.". Simply put: the chilling effect that this Bill could have on freedom of speech rights is incalculable. Please SIGN and SHARE this petition which tells Trudeau Liberals to stop their attempt to impose their party's ideology on the Canadian internet. Tell them to scrap Bill C-10 and leave the internet as an independent forum where ideas, beliefs and other ventures can be discussed without government regulation or censorship. And, tell them that Canadian adults are mature enough to make up their own minds about sensitive topics without government interference.

The Corriere Canadese is a secular newspaper. It caters to people whose cultural heritage encompasses millenia of inter-relationships between Church, Family, School and the rights of individuals in the context of societal obligations. Yet we wondered why the Church and School Boards have allowed radical advocates for an inimical ethos to set the agenda from within. There is nothing in the Human Rights Code to suggest anything amiss in Catholicism. In fact, under section 19.1, it specifically says nothing in the code shall be interpreted as displacing the denominational rights of Catholic Schools.
The Education Act specifically tells the Minister he has no business in the affairs of the Catholic schools outside the secular curriculum on “skills.” The Constitution enshrines the mutual rights and obligations of that trilogy.
Sandhya Kohli, a previous Interim Integrity Commissioner hired to bring a sense of sanity to the morass in corporate governance afflicting the TCDSB, was brutal in her frank assessment, even if she did not name names: some trustees (and senior staff) are out of control and are bullying the rest to get their way, to the point of usurping the authority of the Magisterium on religious matters, bypassing administrative law and due process to tar and feather a colleague who stands for the denominational obligations the Board exists to maintain and promote.
It has been going on for more than a year, culminating in a Board meeting on November 11 whose outcome was best described by Trustee Crawford as an “abominable” moment in the history of Catholic education. The conduct of the foul foursome above was vile, malicious and vindictive. Too bad that some misguided others on the Board enabled them.
For an entire year, they permitted a radical element of the LBGTQ2+ community – a teacher in their schools – to heap scorn upon the Catholic Church, make outrageous accusations of “systemic homophobia” in the TCDSB, his employer.
Trustee De Domenico, described as misogynistic by one mother who called him out on his anti-Catholic, anti-Gospel responses to her emails, urged him on, as recently as November 22, telling him he had his back. That teacher/radical threatened to throw the Cardinal out of his class, if he dared show up.
Trustee Li Preti questioned the ability of the Cardinal to understand the Pope’s message on modern families, then proceeded to accuse her colleagues, and Catholics in general, of homophobia.
The Cardinal finally had enough when Trustee Di Pasquale interrupted the reading of an excerpt from the Catholic Catechism, in a Catholic environment, because Di Pasquale found the language was both “dangerous” and “inappropriate.” It is OK if you conjure up an image of Stalinist thought police.
In December 2019, the gang of four caused an “investigation” to be conducted into the utterings of Trustee Del Grande during the course of an open and normal debate and to opine as to whether he had gone overboard with his language. The investigator firm specializes in workplace diversity and gender-based harassment issues – 16 of its 18 lawyers are female. Its lead investigator, Michelle Bird, found that he had not. However, she did not like his tone and his flippancy after the debate.
The Board’s outside legal counsel works for a firm specializing in advocacy for diversity issues. There is never a moment when his advice is not predicated on Human Rights Code and dismissive of Catholic/denominational rights in the Constitution or in the Education Act. The TCDSB actually pays him while it sidelines its own in-house legal counsel.
Trustee Rizzo invited MPP Kathleen Wynne, who lives in Alliston, is not Catholic, did not view or read the transcripts of the meeting investigated by Bird to weigh in against Del Grande and the TCDSB for its homophobia. The Board has initiated an investigation into allegations of electoral fraud levelled against Rizzo, who, as an aside, admits to preferring the rock group the Beatles to Christ.
Thursday night, this motley crew swore allegiance to the Cardinal’s leadership on Catholicism.

lifesitenews--2020-11-30--Biden victory could lead to massive increase in chemical abortions

November 30 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) –Despite losing seats in the House and failing to retake the Senate , progressives are hoping that a Biden administration can retake lost ground and conquer new territory even if the Equality Act and court-packing are off the table ( although that could change if the Democrats win the Georgia runoff races . )
As I noted last week , the Human Rights Campaign has already presented Biden with a department-by-department plan for integrating the LGBT agenda throughout the entire federal government , transforming both domestic and international policy — replete with a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ institutions by denying them accreditation .
Austin Ruse of C-Fam , a pro-life and pro-family organization working at the United Nations to stymie the agenda of abortion activists , has also stated that a Biden presidency will “ destroy all our work.
” For starters , Ruse noted in an email blast , Biden will eliminate the Mexico City Policy so American taxpayer dollars can start flowing into the coffers of the international abortion industry ; refund the UN Population Fund ; start pushing for pro-abortion language in international documents ; appoint radical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ; and demand that poor countries accept his radical anti-life and anti-family agenda .
On my podcast this month , Polish philosopher and MEP Ryszard Legutko echoed Ruse ’ s concerns .
Abortion activists have been increasingly frustrated by the fact that much of their agenda appears to be limited , if not impossible , by the fact that the predicted blue wave never came and by Amy Coney Barrett ’ s last-minute confirmation to the Supreme Court .
While Trump ’ s executive orders defunding Planned Parenthood and other pro-life and pro-family @ @ @ @ @ @ @ orders , he can also deliver the abortion industry another tremendous victory that would “ expand reproductive rights further than ever before.
” In The Atlantic , Greer Donley , an assistant professor of Law at the University Pittsburgh Law School , suggested that Biden could “ re-examine an FDA policy that places severe restrictions on mifepristone ( also known as RU-486 ) — the only drug the FDA has approved to … effectively terminate an early pregnancy ( one within its first 10 weeks ) .
Removing this policy would expand access @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if the central holding from Roe v. Wade is limited or overturned and states are allowed to navigate their own course on abortion.
” While RU-486 was approved by the FDA 20 years ago , abortion activists hoped it would become widely available everywhere and revolutionize access to feticide .
Instead , while the abortion pill accounts for 39 percent of abortions according to some research , a number of laws have made the dangerous pills more difficult to access ( Live Action ’ s devastating 85-page report “ Abortion Pill Exposed , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a shocking and eye-opening look at the impact of this poison . )
According to Donley , Biden could make RU-486 widely available by simply eliminating the requirement that only certified providers at a clinic , doctor ’ s office , or hospital dispense the drugs as well as the stipulation that women sign a patient-agreement form that indicates they have received counseling detailing the risks .
These requirements , Donley says , have made RU-486 difficult to access , as many abortionists do not provide RU-486 .
These restrictions are already being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Biden could effectively do an end run around the legal system : But the REMS ( Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies ) can be removed much more easily without the courts .
The FDA could ask the drug distributor , which sponsored the FDA ’ s review of the drug , to submit a modification request that would allow the agency to evaluate whether the REMS can be safely released .
The sponsor could also submit a request of its own volition to force the FDA to reconsider the REMS .
After @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would almost certainly conclude that the scientific evidence shows that the REMS is unnecessary .
A new FDA commissioner , appointed by Biden , could start the process immediately .
Though a decision to remove the mifepristone REMS would likely be challenged in the courts , a plaintiff would be hard-pressed to prove that the FDA — a scientific agency — acted improperly by listening to scientists .
The result : a win for reproductive rights that is not dependent on the Supreme Court or Congress .
Removing the mifepristone REMS might not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the 19 states that have their own limits on the drug ’ s distribution ( or other states that might pass similar statutes ) .
But it would widen access in the remaining 31 states , ensuring , for instance , that medication abortion would be available to women through telemedicine , obviating the need to go to a clinic .
Patients would still have to obtain a medication-abortion prescription , but without the REMS , any provider could prescribe it ( so long as they follow state abortion laws ) and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ regular pharmacy .
The political risks for Biden would be low , given that most Americans support the right to first-trimester abortion and that expanding its accessibility should reduce the need for second-trimester abortions , which are more controversial .
This action would also give him an opportunity to reassure the women in his base that he is fighting for their interests , especially in light of the losses many are expecting in the Court with Justice Barrett ’ s confirmation .
If the Democrats are unable to pursue the radical agenda they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Act and expanding the Supreme Court — we will start to see them take a more creative approach to expanding abortion access and ramrodding their agenda through .
This proposal is by far the most dangerous , as it could spike the abortion rate after decades of steady decline and undo years worth of legislative progress on the pro-life front by making abortion widely available outside of abortion clinics and hospitals .
Pro-lifers have successfully erected legal barriers to protect women and children , but a policy change like this one could circumvent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Often , those consequences are lethal for the weakest among us .

PETITION UPDATE (1/15/2021) -
The events of the past month, and especially the past 10 days, have shaken the faith Americans have in their elected and appoint officials.
We continue to call for investigations to be made into allegations of election fraud. Texas is in the process of prosecuting one political operative for illegal ballot harvesting, and multiple state legislatures have called for investigations, too.
However, the judiciary has severely let down the American electorate.
As we have said all along, the integrity of the election is much bigger than President Trump. Election integrity is at the heart of republican democracy, and if we don't have it, we no longer have a functioning republic.
Therefore, we continue to seek the truth for the election outcome. Perhaps that will only be known in the future when state or federal commissions are established to investigate the instances of election fraud which were witnessed and sworn to, by thousands of Americans of all political persuasions.
In the meantime, you may still sign this petition. Thank you!
___________________________________________________________________
PETITION UPDATE (12/10/20) -
On Wednesday, President Trump tweeted: "We will be INTERVENING in the Texas (plus many other states) case. This is the big one. Our Country needs a victory!"
He is referring to the lawsuit which the state of Texas has filed against Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Georgia in the Supreme Court over changes those states made to their election rules, claiming they violated the U.S. Constitution in the process.
Here is the central part of the argument: if Texas were to allow possible voter fraud to go unchecked in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Georgia, it would be akin to committing fraud upon the people of Texas, who cast their ballots within the framework of the law.
Indeed, this would apply equally to all citizens who voted within the framework of the law across the United States!
President Trump also tweeted that this case is, "very strong...ALL CRITERIA MET."
Please continue to SIGN and SHARE this urgent petition, now.
____________________________________________________________________
PETITION UPDATE (12/7/20) - Since this petition was launched, President Trump's legal team, as well as other concerned citizens, have discovered what appears to be irrefutable evidence of voter fraud in several of the key battleground states, and have initiated legal challenges in six states.
While the situation continues to evolve, this remains a hugely important petition which we encourage you to SIGN and SHARE.
Below, please WATCH and READ about the mounting evidence of voter fraud and how the mainstream media seem determined to ignore even the most egregious instances of vote tampering. Then, please SIGN and SHARE this petition.
'Trump: ‘Our election system is now under assault and siege’ and as president I must defend it'
'Tens of thousands 2020 election votes illegally scanned in Detroit, says Dominion IT contractor'
'Trump campaign files lawsuit demanding ‘a new statewide election for president’ in Georgia'
'Experts flag over 500k ballots in PA with new evidence of major 2020 election voter fraud'
''Smoking gun'? Pennsylvania vote fraud hearing gets gasps from audience'
'FBI and Justice Department have dragged their feet investigating 2020 vote fraud'
''CNN top brass in leaked tape: We won't give Trump 'too much of a platform on his not conceding'
'Twitter censored Trump 63 times over Thanksgiving holiday, Biden untouched'
LifeSite supports President Trump with this petition because we believe he is trying to defend the Constitution, ensuring that electoral fraud does not taint the result of the 2020 general election.
But, since starting this petition, we have launched a separate petition related to the disputed election outcome, calling on the Department of Justice to 'do their job' and engage in meaningful investigations of the mounting evidence of voter fraud.
We believe that conducting forensic audits of ballots and voting machines, as well as issuing subpoenas to collect more evidence, would be a good start.
Thankfully, some of the state started to demand investigations independent of federal agencies. But we still believe that the DoJ needs to use its enormous fact-finding resources to help resolve allegations of election fraud.
Thank you for continuing to SIGN and SHARE all our election-related petitions.
_____________________________________________________________________
Please SIGN and SHARE this urgent petition which calls on all Americans to Stand With President Trump as he uses every legitimate means to find out if voter fraud played any role in the election outcome.
Amid allegations of voter fraud, and at a time when the situation with COVID has been used by many of the states to facilitate the use of mail-in ballots on a massive scale, we need to be very careful in dismissing the possibility of voter fraud.
The fact is, the possibility of wide-spread fraud with mail-in ballots is significant.
But, this is not about Donald Trump or Joe Biden! This about whether or not the sanctity of the ballot box has been tampered with!
Please Stand With President Trump as he attempts to defend the integrity of this election, as well as well as the right to vote itself!
Indeed, this is so important, not so much because one election hangs in the balance, but because our democracy, itself, hangs in the balance.
Americans not only have a right to know, but should demand that every legitimate means be used to discover the truth about these elections!
Please SIGN this petition and Stand With President Trump to ensure that these elections were conducted freely and fairly!
While most all Americans believe in playing by the rules, we also know that some very devious, politically-motivated operatives have been trying to harm the Trump administration from before he even took the oath of office.
This fact should lead us to question how some allegations of voter fraud can be so easily dismissed by state election authorities.
We demand to know the truth, and, for the sake of our democracy, we demand that President Trump keep fighting to learn the truth.
Thank you for SIGNING and SHARING this petition today!

lifesitenews--2020-11-30--COVID-19 part of China’s ‘stealth war’ against the United States: retired USAF general

November 30 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) — The coronavirus pandemic is part of the “ stealth war ” that the Chinese Communist Party has been waging against the United States by infiltrating its democratic institutions and undermining its political and social culture , a retired U.S Air Force general and China expert warned .
“ The coronavirus revealed an entirely new threat to Americans for the first time , ” retired Air Force Brigadier General Robert Spalding told a virtual summit on the pandemic last month .
“ It ’ s a very subtle and it ’ s a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ national security , ” Spalding said during the Truth Over Fear Summit , organized by Catholic broadcaster Patrick Coffin .
The Chinese Communist Party ( CCP ) views the United States as its “ main adversary , ” not because of its nuclear arms but because “ we have a constitution … designed to separate power in the United States to ensure no one person , group or party could gain ultimate power , and to recognize that the highest form of tyranny in the world is totalitarianism , ” he pointed out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will “ someday awaken to the potential of humanity as defined by our Declaration of Independence , the preamble to the Constitution , our system of institutions and rules and protections for civil liberties , ” and so is actively seeking to “ erode our nation from within.
” The way in which Beijing is using the coronavirus pandemic to gain advantage over the West is of a piece with this campaign , which Spalding detailed in his 2019 book : Stealth War : How China Took Over While America ’ s Elites @ @ @ @ @ @ @ military to defend its national interests and regards war , in the words of Prussian general and military theorist Claus von Clausewitz , as “ the continuation of politics by other means , ” the CCP “ looks at politics as the method of war .
In other words , war is politics ; politics is war , ” said Spalding , a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute .
Mao Zedong referred to this as the “ people ’ s war , ” and it is how the CCP “ came to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ warfare , psychological warfare , ideological warfare , economic warfare , many other capacities to motivate … the population and the society to essentially gain legitimacy and eventually overthrow the nationalist party.
” The CCP ’ s ability to control the narrative within China has been “ primarily increased through the use of Western technology , ” which has also , along with its increased ties with the West , allowed Beijing to exert control over the narrative in the outside world .
“ After the end of the Cold War , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ World Trade Organization , their ability to use business , finance , and information to extend this influence and control beyond their borders is what we are dealing with today in the coronavirus , ” Spalding said .
As with the swine flu and SARS outbreaks , Beijing ’ s story was that a local official was at fault for not informing CCP higher-ups of the novel coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan , and was then fired .
But while the West interprets this as “ incompetence , ” the East ’ s interpretation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ things.
” That ’ s why Taiwan sent researchers to China in December , who reported back that the virus was spreading through human-to-human contact .
Taiwan then slammed shut its border to China while the United States hesitated , Spalding said .
Meanwhile , Xi Jinping shut down domestic travel on January 7 , even as six million people traveled from China to other countries .
Xi then shut down Wuhan on January 23 , Spalding said .
America later learned that the CCP was “ putting pressure on the World Health @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” Moreover , China changed “ overnight ” from being a lead exporter of PPE ( personal protective equipment ) and masks , to a lead importer of these items , noted Spalding .
“ Then subsequently , the Chinese Communist Party talks about taking advantage of the way that they ’ ve handled the coronavirus to advance their economy , ” he told Coffin in a virtual Q & A .
Other clues that the CCP used the pandemic “ as a mechanism to weaken the West and really increase its relative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” Beijing orchestrated in the aftermath of the pandemic , the retired general said .
These included “ social media campaigns ” that claimed the coronavirus did not start in China , and those that stoked fear and panic and “ certainly encouraged countries to lock down their economies , ” Spalding observed .
“ These are all components of a social media campaign that saw 40 percent of social media posts surrounding the coronavirus as bots , basically automated algorithms , that were designed to essentially throw gasoline on the fire , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The pandemic was followed by “ riots and looting ” with “ again , social media coming from bots that was antagonizing and adding to fuel to that fire , ” he contended .
“ If you go back and study the method of warfare of the Chinese Communist Party and recognize that it ’ s political , it ’ s psychological , it uses media , it uses all elements of connectedness to essentially control the narrative , then you realize that we created the perfect society , global society , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” he said .
He elaborated on the “ stealth war ” China has been waging against America for years .
“ There has been a determined effort on the part of the Chinese Communist Party and the Russians to diminish the attractiveness of liberal democratic principles and democratic societies , and this has been very effective , ” Spalding said .
“ Not only are our universities and schools now teaching ideas like critical race theory , like socialism , like applied postmodernism , but they ’ re also infiltrated by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he noted .
“ When you get right down to the heart of it , critical race theory , post-modernism , applied post-modernism really has zero difference from the way the Chinese Communist Party runs their society , ” Spalding told Coffin .
That is , “ the narrative is what determines what you know and what you think.
” The CCP also realized that “ Silicon Valley created this enormous engine for individual influence in these large tech companies.
” It has adopted these practices and “ built essentially competing tech companies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , these being BeiDou , Alibaba , and Tencent , respectively , as well as exporting such products , such as video sharing network , Tik Tok .
“ Beidou , the main search engine in China , is curated for what the Chinese Communist Party wants you to see , ” he told Coffin .
“ What you have begun to see here in our society is a realization that our search results in Google are similarly curated for what Google wants you to see , and it ’ s not necessarily @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Google , it ’ s also related to their social and political world view , ” Spalding said .
“ That ’ s where we are beginning to have this challenge with regard to the use of your data and censorship in the free world that mimics in a large respect what the Chinese Communist Party does.
” Moreover , the CCP is aiming to become , in Taiwanese-born American computer scientist Kai-Fu Lee ’ s phrase “ the Saudi Arabia of data , ” Spalding said , “ because they understand that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
And that ’ s why Facebook , Amazon and Google all have artificial intelligence research centers in China.
” America ’ s protections of its national sovereignty through its military power and “ two big oceans ” are “ illusory protections , ” that “ actually mask the incredible threat to our democracy that comes in through corporate business practices , through Wall Street investment in China , through our academic system , through our research labs , through our lobbying and PR firms and our law firms and our political establishment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the Chinese Communist Party has not only infiltrated nearly every institution in the United States , it also controls much of the United Nations , now the World Bank , many of the international institutions like the World Trade Organization , ” he said .
The CCP “ improved ” on communism of the USSR ’ s Josef Stalin by “ using the banking system and access to capital in conjunction with allowing a certain level of corruption and profit seeking ” to “ create an economy that was enticing to outside @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , say , corporate America ’ s profit motive , ” Spalding told Coffin .
“ They 've also been very open in a geopolitical sense , ” he said .
“ As opposed to Khrushchev banging his shoe at the UN , Chinese leaders have been very , very open .
Xi Jinping and other leaders have gone to Davos and talked about the need for globalization and openness … They have adopted the narrative of cooperation and collaboration while still maintaining the regime very much like the Soviet Union.
” These @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aftermath of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacres that crushed a student movement for democratic reform .
The CCP ’ s Tiananmen Papers say that Beijing needs to “ stay connected to the free world in order to extract innovation , technology , talent , and capital but we can not allow this idea of freedom … to infect the minds of Chinese subjects.
” That Americans have been affected by China ’ s “ stealth war ” is evident in many ways , one being the breakdown in social discourse .
“ I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them , ” Spalding told Coffin , “ It just incenses people and that 's something that I think is very , very dangerous for our society.
” “ I think it ’ s something that we can turn around , but we have to confront it , ” he added .
“ People have been so cowed and they ’ re so terrified of confronting it directly when it happens that … they self-censor , ” Spalding said .
“ We have to confront it .

‘The coronavirus revealed an entirely new threat to Americans for the first time,’ retired Air Force Brigadier General Robert Spalding told the Truth over Fear virtual summit on the pandemic last month.
November 30, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — The coronavirus pandemic is part of the “stealth war” that the Chinese Communist Party has been waging against the United States by infiltrating its democratic institutions and undermining its political and social culture, a retired U.S Air Force general and China expert warned.
“The coronavirus revealed an entirely new threat to Americans for the first time,” retired Air Force Brigadier General Robert Spalding told a virtual summit on the pandemic last month.
“It’s a very subtle and it’s a completely different kind of threat to our national security,” Spalding said during the Truth Over Fear Summit, organized by Catholic broadcaster Patrick Coffin.
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) views the United States as its “main adversary,” not because of its nuclear arms but because “we have a constitution … designed to separate power in the United States to ensure no one person, group or party could gain ultimate power, and to recognize that the highest form of tyranny in the world is totalitarianism,” he pointed out.
Beijing fears that the Chinese people will “someday awaken to the potential of humanity as defined by our Declaration of Independence, the preamble to the Constitution, our system of institutions and rules and protections for civil liberties,” and so is actively seeking to “erode our nation from within.”
The way in which Beijing is using the coronavirus pandemic to gain advantage over the West is of a piece with this campaign, which Spalding detailed in his 2019 book: Stealth War: How China Took Over While America’s Elites Slept.
While America developed a strong military to defend its national interests and regards war, in the words of Prussian general and military theorist Claus von Clausewitz, as “the continuation of politics by other means,” the CCP “looks at politics as the method of war. In other words, war is politics; politics is war,” said Spalding, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute.
Mao Zedong referred to this as the “people’s war,” and it is how the CCP “came to power in China: by using political warfare, psychological warfare, ideological warfare, economic warfare, many other capacities to motivate … the population and the society to essentially gain legitimacy and eventually overthrow the nationalist party.”
The CCP’s ability to control the narrative within China has been “primarily increased through the use of Western technology,” which has also, along with its increased ties with the West, allowed Beijing to exert control over the narrative in the outside world.
“After the end of the Cold War, and certainly when China was brought into the World Trade Organization, their ability to use business, finance, and information to extend this influence and control beyond their borders is what we are dealing with today in the coronavirus,” Spalding said.
As with the swine flu and SARS outbreaks, Beijing’s story was that a local official was at fault for not informing CCP higher-ups of the novel coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan, and was then fired.
But while the West interprets this as “incompetence,” the East’s interpretation is that the CCP “deliberately obfuscates things.”
That’s why Taiwan sent researchers to China in December, who reported back that the virus was spreading through human-to-human contact. Taiwan then slammed shut its border to China while the United States hesitated, Spalding said.
Meanwhile, Xi Jinping shut down domestic travel on January 7, even as six million people traveled from China to other countries. Xi then shut down Wuhan on January 23, Spalding said.
America later learned that the CCP was “putting pressure on the World Health Organization not to talk about human-to-human transmission.”
Moreover, China changed “overnight” from being a lead exporter of PPE (personal protective equipment) and masks, to a lead importer of these items, noted Spalding.
“Then subsequently, the Chinese Communist Party talks about taking advantage of the way that they’ve handled the coronavirus to advance their economy,” he told Coffin in a virtual Q&A.
Other clues that the CCP used the pandemic “as a mechanism to weaken the West and really increase its relative strength” were the “disinformation campaigns” Beijing orchestrated in the aftermath of the pandemic, the retired general said.
These included “social media campaigns” that claimed the coronavirus did not start in China, and those that stoked fear and panic and “certainly encouraged countries to lock down their economies,” Spalding observed.
“These are all components of a social media campaign that saw 40 percent of social media posts surrounding the coronavirus as bots, basically automated algorithms, that were designed to essentially throw gasoline on the fire, which was panic,” he said.
The pandemic was followed by “riots and looting” with “again, social media coming from bots that was antagonizing and adding to fuel to that fire,” he contended.
“If you go back and study the method of warfare of the Chinese Communist Party and recognize that it’s political, it’s psychological, it uses media, it uses all elements of connectedness to essentially control the narrative, then you realize that we created the perfect society, global society, to enable the spread of that narrative,” he said.
He elaborated on the “stealth war” China has been waging against America for years.
“There has been a determined effort on the part of the Chinese Communist Party and the Russians to diminish the attractiveness of liberal democratic principles and democratic societies, and this has been very effective,” Spalding said.
“Not only are our universities and schools now teaching ideas like critical race theory, like socialism, like applied postmodernism, but they’re also infiltrated by a number of Confucius Institutes,” he noted.
“When you get right down to the heart of it, critical race theory, post-modernism, applied post-modernism really has zero difference from the way the Chinese Communist Party runs their society,” Spalding told Coffin.
That is, “the narrative is what determines what you know and what you think.”
The CCP also realized that “Silicon Valley created this enormous engine for individual influence in these large tech companies.”
It has adopted these practices and “built essentially competing tech companies” to Google, Amazon and Facebook, these being BeiDou, Alibaba, and Tencent, respectively, as well as exporting such products, such as video sharing network, Tik Tok.
“Beidou, the main search engine in China, is curated for what the Chinese Communist Party wants you to see,” he told Coffin.
“What you have begun to see here in our society is a realization that our search results in Google are similarly curated for what Google wants you to see, and it’s not necessarily always purely related to economic benefit for Google, it’s also related to their social and political world view,” Spalding said.
“That’s where we are beginning to have this challenge with regard to the use of your data and censorship in the free world that mimics in a large respect what the Chinese Communist Party does.”
Moreover, the CCP is aiming to become, in Taiwanese-born American computer scientist Kai-Fu Lee’s phrase “the Saudi Arabia of data,” Spalding said, “because they understand that the data drives artificial intelligence and influence. And that’s why Facebook, Amazon and Google all have artificial intelligence research centers in China.”
America’s protections of its national sovereignty through its military power and “two big oceans” are “illusory protections,” that “actually mask the incredible threat to our democracy that comes in through corporate business practices, through Wall Street investment in China, through our academic system, through our research labs, through our lobbying and PR firms and our law firms and our political establishment,” he said.
“Essentially, the Chinese Communist Party has not only infiltrated nearly every institution in the United States, it also controls much of the United Nations, now the World Bank, many of the international institutions like the World Trade Organization,” he said.
The CCP “improved” on communism of the USSR’s Josef Stalin by “using the banking system and access to capital in conjunction with allowing a certain level of corruption and profit seeking” to “create an economy that was enticing to outside interest in a way that aligned to, say, corporate America’s profit motive,” Spalding told Coffin.
“They've also been very open in a geopolitical sense,” he said.
“As opposed to Khrushchev banging his shoe at the UN, Chinese leaders have been very, very open. Xi Jinping and other leaders have gone to Davos and talked about the need for globalization and openness … They have adopted the narrative of cooperation and collaboration while still maintaining the regime very much like the Soviet Union.”
These are lessons the CCP learned in the aftermath of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacres that crushed a student movement for democratic reform.
The CCP’s Tiananmen Papers say that Beijing needs to “stay connected to the free world in order to extract innovation, technology, talent, and capital but we cannot allow this idea of freedom … to infect the minds of Chinese subjects.”
That Americans have been affected by China’s “stealth war” is evident in many ways, one being the breakdown in social discourse.
“I just call things the way I see them,” Spalding told Coffin, “It just incenses people and that's something that I think is very, very dangerous for our society.”
“I think it’s something that we can turn around, but we have to confront it,” he added.
“People have been so cowed and they’re so terrified of confronting it directly when it happens that … they self-censor,” Spalding said. “We have to confront it. … Where evil exists, if you don’t confront it, it will grow, and that’s, I think, our biggest challenge today.”

lifesitenews--2020-12-01--Police remove teen girl from Australian parents over their ‘abusive’ refusal to let her ‘transition’

Police remove teen girl from Australian parents over their ‘abusive’ refusal to let her ‘transition’ to boy

December 1 , 2020 ( LifeSiteNews ) – An Australian magistrate ordered that a gender-confused teenage girl be removed from her home after the magistrate called the parents ’ refusal to allow her to ‘ transition ’ into a boy “ abusive.
” Police removed the 15-year old from her home after the state children ’ s court magistrate cited in an October protection order the girl ’ s risk of self-harm .
The girl , who can not be named for legal reasons , allegedly discussed suicide in online chatrooms .
The parents , who also can not be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as bullying by authorities and are in the process of appealing the decision .
They deny any abuse of their daughter .
“ ( The authorities say ) we will not allow her to change gender , so it ’ s dangerous for her to come back to our house because we will mentally abuse her — they want us to consent to testosterone treatment , ” the father told The Australian in a Nov. 28 report .
The parents expressed grief over the loss of their daughter , according to The Australian @ @ @ @ @ @ @ friends were shocked by the magistrate ’ s order .
“ Especially Australians , they just can ’ t believe that it happens in Australia , ” the mother said .
The parents are asking for a second opinion before doctors move ahead in giving their daughter hormone injections and possible surgery to make her look more like a male .
Lawyers representing the teenager have already filed legal action on Nov. 7 for doctors to begin ‘ transitioning ’ the female to make her look male .
The country ’ s child @ @ @ @ @ @ @ agreed to the parents ’ request for a second opinion , reported The Australian .
A lawyer representing the parents says that the magistrate made an error in the decision when the magistrate insisted that the ruling had , in the words of The Australian report , “ nothing to do with the causes of gender dysphoria or treatment options.
” The lawyer filed the papers on Nov. 20 .
“ It ’ s controversial because different doctors can come up with different diagnoses and different treatments , so for parents to seek @ @ @ @ @ @ @ irreversible treatment is wholly appropriate , ” the lawyer , who also can not be named , said .
Former political candidate Vickie Janson , a cultural conservationist and author from Melbourne , called the court ’ s pushing of the girl toward hormones to make her look more like a male “ just reckless.
” “ Even the lawyer ca n't be named ( needs protection ? )
when representing parents who seek 'an independent psychologist to consider all possible underlying causes ' ... rushing to damaging and irreversible treatments is just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in a Nov. 28 post .


lifesitenews--2020-12-01--Petition demands Conservative MPs oppose new Canadian euthanasia law

December 1 , 2020 , ( LifeSiteNews ) – LifeSiteNews is petitioning Canada 's members of Parliament to reject expanding provisions for euthanasia in Bill C-7 .
The petition is focusing on 40 Conservative Party MPs who supported this Bill in its Second Reading in late October .
According to Canada ’ s Department of Justice , “ Bill C-7 would amend the Criminal Code to permit MAID [ medical assistance in dying ] for individuals whose natural death is not reasonably foreseeable.
” In order to “ qualify ” for MAID , a person must , “ have a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other words , a serious illness , disease or disability ) ” according to the BC Cancer website .
The petition reads : “ Our elected Members of Parliament should be discussing how to help our disabled , elderly and young people with greater provision for homecare , palliative care , and mental health support , rather than encouraging our most vulnerable to kill themselves with our government 's help and endorsement.
” An alarming aspect of the bill is that it only requires the signature of one witness , which could include @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for abuse and coercion .
Disability rights activist Taylor Hyatt , when asked about the impact of Bill C-7 told the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada : “ Bill C-7 ( and its predecessor , Bill C-14 ) has caused all levels of society to question more subtly whether my existence might be too much to bear ... Bill C-7 allows decisionmakers with no experience of disability and its related societal barriers – but who have authority and power that people with disabilities lack – to make judgments about whether living with one is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ petition can be found here .

PETITION UPDATE (2/25/2021) -
Not only has the federal Senate in Canada not come to the aid of vulnerable people threatened by the passage of Euthanasia Bill C-7, they have actually voted to make matters worse by EXPANDING provision of euthanasia beyond what C-7 had originally intended.
The bill will now go back to Parliament, where the Senate's amendments can be accepted or rejected.
Please READ LifeSiteNews' analysis of the Trudeau Liberals' latest salvo in their all-out push to expand euthanasia in Canada: https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/canada-senate-passes-euthanasia-bill-expanding-categories-of-the-killable
Then, please SIGN and SHARE this petition. Thank you.
______________________________________________________________________
PETITION UPDATE (12/9/2020)
On December 3, 2020, the Concurrence at report stage of Bill C-7 passed with 213 yeas and 103 nays, with a total of 316 votes.
Bill C-7 would expand already existing provisions for assisted suicide. It would "repeal the provision that requires a person’s natural death be reasonably foreseeable."
The Bill is currently in its Third Reading in the House of Commons and will move on to the Senate if it passes.
We are obliged to help people who are suffering, especially the vulnerable, and that’s why we must oppose Bill C-7.
Please SIGN and SHARE this urgent petition. Then, please contact your MP and tell them to vote NO on Bill C-7. You can find your MP and their contact information HERE.
____________________________________________________________________
We are obliged to help people who are suffering, not kill them.
But, that's exactly what the existing euthanasia law - the so-called "medical assistance in dying (MAiD)" provision - allows.
And, right now, the Trudeau Liberals are pushing for making death even more accessible to our most vulnerable citizens by tabling Bill C-7 in Parliament.
Please SIGN this petition and call for Canada's Members of Parliament to REJECT more euthanasia in Bill C-7, and, instead, provide for more homecare, palliative care, and mental health support.
Bill C-7 would expand existing provisions for assisted-suicide by removing the requirement that a person's natural death be reasonably foreseeable to qualify for MAiD.
Simply put: under C-7, people who are not terminally ill can be killed by MAiD!
This is outrageous, as it puts people with disabilities, the elderly, the young, and those who cannot consent (if they had already agreed to MAiD) at serious risk.
Please CLICK HERE to learn more about Bill C-7 and how it would put those vulnerable people more at risk, and allow for more death and more killing.
Then, please SIGN and SHARE this urgent petition.
Our elected Members of Parliament should be discussing how to help our disabled, elderly and young people with greater provision for homecare, palliative care, and mental health support, rather than encouraging our most vulnerable to kill themselves with our government's help and endorsement.
Nothing could be more foul and malicious.
And, while it's true that Trudeau's Minister of Justice is sponsoring this atrocious Bill, 40 Conservative Party politicians supported him in the vote on the Bill's Second Reading in late October.
We list these 40 Conservative MPs below, so that, after signing this petition, you can politely and respectfully contact them to let them know you want them to REJECT the expansion of MAiD (which, again, will mean more death and more killing), and to EMBRACE life-affirming provisions, like more funding for homecare, palliative care, and mental health support for our most vulnerable citizens.
Thank you!
