“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion.”
Frank Zappa
“I hate it when they say, “He gave his life for his country.” Nobody gives their life for anything. We steal the lives of these kids. We take it away from them. They don’t die for the honor and glory of their country. We kill them.”
Admiral Gene LaRocque
“Free people, remember this maxim: we may acquire liberty, but it is never recovered if it is once lost.”
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
“The idea of social justice is that the state should treat different people unequally in order to make them equal.”
Friedrich Hayek

Here’s the full Zappa quote:
“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”
And then you’ll find out the truth about your stupid fucking democracy.
Not trying to hijack, CC… but I saw an anonymous sort ask about sending a post. Anonamillion used the word “sensorship” which I found interesting since the other posts from this anon seemed quite well written. He offered information if Admin would print it…
I suggested he email it to the bossman and if it is readable, he’ll post it. For some, he posts it anyway and that teaches some of us, who are trainable, to use discernment.
But, being a nosy posy… and the type who likes to find out the “cause” of linguistic changes…

Anonamillion? Is this you?
Not sure I completely understand but yes, anyone can submit an article for consideration. Beyond being a TBP devotee I have no special connection to the Admin but I did submit an article a couple of months ago that he did post without editing. Very cool experience. I doubt very seriously he would censor anything that wasn’t libel or threatening. Certainly no political censorship from this site which is the polat opposite of PC.
Great quote selection today, Admin.
