As a US Citizen who has had their twitter posts censored, I consider myself to be a critic of the US Government who has been effectively silenced. At a certain point you have to decide whether you are willing to die for your cause, or live with your shame.

The West no longer deserves its reputation for fighting fascists. Quite the opposite, in fact.
