“Evil thrives on apathy and cannot survive without it. Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty. One of the greatest advantages of the totalitarian elites of the twenties and thirties was to turn any statement of fact into a question of motive [or process].”
Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism
“Don’t be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated; you can’t cross a chasm in two small jumps.”
David Lloyd George
“Men in authority will always think that criticism of their policies is dangerous. They will always equate their policies with patriotism, and find criticism subversive.”
Henry Steele Commager
“Because federal hate-crime laws criminalize thoughts, they are incompatible with a free society.”
Ron Paul
It is my sincere desire to provide readers of this site with the best unbiased information available, and a forum where it can be discussed openly, as our Founders intended. But it is not easy nor inexpensive to do so, especially when those who wish to prevent us from making the truth known, attack us without mercy on all fronts on a daily basis. So each time you visit the site, I would ask that you consider the value that you receive and have received from The Burning Platform and the community of which you are a vital part. I can't do it all alone, and I need your help and support to keep it alive. Please consider contributing an amount commensurate to the value that you receive from this site and community, or even by becoming a sustaining supporter through periodic contributions.
