"Zuckerberg wants amnesty. He wants to eat a teensy bit of crow in exchange for amnesiac friends across the aisle who treat him like the next Elon Musk who swooped in with lifeboats for the sinking ship, rather than the corrupt captain who took the ship down. This isn’t a real admission of guilt. We can’t give Mark Zuckerberg amnesty for the same reason we can’t give it to Anthony Fauci or Joe Biden or Letitia James or Jack Smith. There can be no amnesty without restitution and true accountability — for Covid crimes, corruption, lawfare, or, in this case, censorship. It’s too little, too late.
"Zuckerberg is ultimately shooting for a plea deal in the court of public opinion. He wants to throw his co-conspirators under the bus and half-heartedly admit guilt for lesser offenses with the hope of a slap on the wrist and maybe a little community service. That’s not justice, and the American people should reject it."

“A man’s natural rights are his own, against the whole world; and any infringement of them is equally a crime, whether committed by one man, or by millions; whether committed by one man, calling himself a robber, (or by any other name indicating his true character,) or by millions, calling themselves a government.”
Lysander Spooner (1867). “No Treason: No. 1-”, p.7
Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few.
In war, too, the discretionary power of the Executive is extended; its influence in dealing out offices, honors, and emoluments is multiplied; and all the means of seducing the minds, are added to those of subduing the force, of the people.
The same malignant aspect in republicanism may be traced in the inequality of fortunes, and the opportunities of fraud, growing out of a state of war, and in the degeneracy of manners and of morals engendered by both. No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.
James Madison, 1795
Somebody typed a prompt, and a virus came out.
Sixteen of them. Genomes written by artificial intelligence, ordered as synthetic DNA, assembled on a bench, and grown into stocks that replicated and threw off offspring. Thirteen carried mutations that match no known natural sequence. The scientific paper ran in the publication Science, and its senior author disclosed funding from the Gates Foundation.
Six years ago, on April 6, 2020, Bill Gates sat with Trevor Noah and said a vaccine was the only thing that would let us return to normal — and announced that his foundation would start building the factories before anyone had seen efficacy data. Scale during testing, he said, rather than waiting for results. A great many people heard optimism. Some of us heard a schedule.
