Laws which prescribe what everyone must believe, and forbid men to say or write anything against this or that opinion, are often passed to gratify, or rather to appease the anger of those who cannot abide independent minds. – Baruch Spinoza Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
Nothing is so galling to a people not broken in from birth as a paternal, or, in other words, a meddling government, a government which tells them what to read, and say, and eat, and drink and wear. – Thomas Babington Macaulay Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
The bourgeoisie is many times stronger than we. To give it the weapon of freedom of the press is to ease the enemy’s cause, to help the class enemy. We do not desire to end in suicide, so we will not do this. – Vladimir Ilyich Lenin Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
We believe the picture painters of the mass media are artfully creating landscapes for us which deliberately hide the real picture. In this book we will show you how to discover the hidden picture in the landscapes presented to us daily through newspapers, radio and television. – Gary Allen Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
Half the work that is done in this world is to make things appear what they are not. – Elias Root Beadle Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
Contrary to the Marxists, the Nazis did not advocate public ownership of the means of production. They did demand that the government oversee and run the nation’s economy. The issue of legal ownership, they explained, is secondary; what counts is the issue of control. Private citizens, therefore, may continue to hold titles to property—so long as the state reserves to itself the unqualified right to regulate the use of their property. – Leonard Peikoff Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
The ideal type of the Communist is a man in whom all individual, emotional, and unconscious elements have been reduced to a minimum and subjected to the control of an iron will, informed by a supple intellect. That intellect is totally at the service of a single and compelling idea, made incarnate in the Communist Party: the concept of History as an inexorable god whose ways are revealed ‘scientifically’ through the doctrine and method of Marxism-Leninism. – Frank Straus Meyer Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
The notion that the church, the press, and the universities should serve the state is essentially a Communist notion. In a free society these institutions must be wholly free -- which is to say that their function is to serve as checks upon the state. – Alan Barth Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
Perhaps the most obvious political effect of controlled news is the advantage it gives powerful people in getting their issues on the political agenda and defining those issues in ways likely to influence their resolution. – W. Lance Bennett Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
Every time I criticize what I consider to be excesses or faults in the news business, I am accused of repression, and the leaders of various media professional groups wave the First Amendment as they denounce me. That happens to be my amendment, too. It guarantees my free speech as it does their freedom of the press… There is room for all of us – and for our divergent views – under the First Amendment. – Spiro Agnew Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
How do you tell a Communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin. – President Ronald Reagan Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
National Socialism is what Marxism might have been if it could have broken its absurd and artificial ties with the democratic order. – Adolf Hitler Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
Communism and socialism is [sic] seductive. It promises us that people will contribute according to ability and receive according to needs. Everybody is equal. Everybody has a right to decent housing, decent food and affordable medical care. History should have taught us that when we hear people talk this stuff -- watch out! and socialism is [sic] seductive.

This is why political correctness, or Cultural Marxism,... lends itself so fashionably to easy labels. Transphobic, homophobic, xenophobic, racist, bigoted, Uncle Tom, white privilege, mainsplaining. All of these are slapped on people with politically incorrect opinions in an attempt to silence you. ... Hate speech is inextricably tied to political correctness, or Cultural Marxism, and that creates intellectual conformity -- or intellectual authoritarianism. And that’s where you start to see things like “safe spaces” or “trigger warnings” or speakers banned from campus, or people with unpopular opinions banned from social media. – Steven Crowder Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
The choice is not between order and liberty. It is between liberty with order and anarchy without either. There is danger that, if the court does not temper its doctrinaire logic with a little practical wisdom, it will convert the constitutional Bill of Rights into a suicide pact. – Robert H. Jackson Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
The shallow consider liberty a release from all law, from every constraint. The wise see in it, on the contrary, the potent Law of Laws. – Walt Whitman Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
The limitation of riots, moral questions aside, is that they cannot win and their participants know it. Hence, rioting is not revolutionary but reactionary because it invites defeat. It involves an emotional catharsis, but it must be followed by a sense of futility. – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
Democracy is morose, and runs to anarchy. – Ralph Waldo Emerson Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
[D]emocracy will soon degenerate into an anarchy, such an anarchy that every man will do what is right in his own eyes and no man's life or property or reputation or liberty will be secure, and every one of these will soon mould itself into a system of subordination of all the moral virtues and intellectual abilities, all the powers of wealth, beauty, wit and science, to the wanton pleasures, the capricious will, and the execrable cruelty of one or a very few. – John Adams Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
Democracy leads to anarchy, which is mob rule. – Plato Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
I think they've [Labour Government] made the biggest financial mess that any government's ever made in this country for a very long time, and Socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. They always run out of other people's money. It's quite a characteristic of them. They then start to nationalise everything, and people just do not like more and more nationalisation, and they're now trying to control everything by other means. They're progressively reducing the choice available to ordinary people. – Margaret Thatcher Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
Modern society, based as it is on the division of labor, can be preserved only under conditions of lasting peace. – Ludwig Von Mises Famous Quote	added 4 years ago
