The shape-shifting of free speech is definitely being played uppj this week. There's an obvious twisted double standard that Maga is trying to hard push. Canceling Jimmy Kimmel over a faint regard while pushing the Kirk's hateful rhetoric was just him expressing "free speech" is such a nonsense argument.

Thank you so much for your insight, even if it was a couple days into the week. It did strike accord

Great great line:

These platforms operate perfectly within Monkey energy. They present themselves as "just comedy," "just conversation," "just two people talking." But during a B’atz/Chuen trecena, that is exactly when the most potent programming occurs. The conscious mind relaxes, laughing at the jokes, while deeper currents of influence flow beneath the surface. Political figures have learned to surf these currents, appearing on shows that explicitly claim to be non-political while implicitly reshaping the political landscape.

This artisan energy works both ways. These comedians genuinely believe they are outside the political machine, just "asking questions," just "having conversations." They do not realize (or want to realize) they have become the machine's most effective components—court jesters who have forgotten they work for the court.
