We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.

Lee Camp: All Dissenting Voices Being Crushed By Facebook & Others

Political comedian and satirist Lee Camp goes on a rant regarding the growing censorship by our masters in the capitalist ruling class against any views expressed by dissidents that is not approved by their censors. Lee Camp exclaims that it is time to fight back by simply spreading this knowledge about the growing censorship. 

It seems to me that if critics of the growing censorship are to get serious, they would stop going on rants about it and organize a nationwide alternative media organization like I proposed last year. Critics of the growing censorship in the USA need to get serious about fighting back.
