There's something missing from the news aggregator mentioned above. 9/11 conspiracy theories. They don't appear in the MSM and are not brought up even by 'hostile' regimes like Iran. Has the weight of evidence lessened over time?
What the plotters of the 9/11 narrative knew, because they have seen it many times before, is that people tend to pander to the Statist within. If 9/11 was exactly what we're told it was, everything, no matter how terrible it may be, at least makes sense. That means we don't have to look 'weird' to the people in our lives - friends, family, partners, colleagues, associates, clients etc. We can be 'normal' - fit neatly into the pack where there's little chance of being singled out, isolated and prevented from leading a comfortable life.
'Royalty' always shows us how it's done
Despite all the self-help books and 'inspiring' figures out there imploring us to 'dare to be different', it's a difficult natural barrier to transgress and it never gets easy. 'In time the truth will come out' is a popular platitude, but, with the lure of 'normality' constantly tugging at the inner soul, this isn't necessarily the case at all. There is a lot of evidence but little enthusiasm for any of it to be explored and little resistance to it's censorship.
This makes sense from an Agorist perspective. The State conditions it's subjects from birth registration to death to follow it's narratives. Everything it does is designed to ensure that extortion appears as a timeless and natural process that cannot be avoided, no matter how much some 'dreamers' may wish to think otherwise.
Once those ideas are firmly embedded the 'growing' mind learns that the less time and energy spent questioning the extortion and the more spent becoming, in some way, an integral part of it, is what gets rewarded by Society.
Actual reality then has little to do with anything that matters on a daily basis to 'normal' people. This was most succinctly summed up by Noam Chomsky when asked about 9/11 - he replied 'so what?'. Quite striking from a figure that is held up as the epicenter of thoughtful resistance to the State by many (perhaps only the 'normal'[?]).
So what indeed? What does 9/11 mean to any of us now? Nothing has changed. Those who questioned the State after 9/11 are the same ones who did so before 9/11 (perhaps a few converts both ways), for the same reasons - an appreciation for the relations of power in Society and how they manifest themselves. The Founding Fathers understood these dynamics. Surveying the political landscape after their departure they would, I suggest, conclude that 9/11 is a natural, unsurprising and logical part of how they would expect freedom to be undermined in that geographical region they call the U.S. Just a false flag operation. They had them then, so why wouldn't they have them now?
What matters is the Will to resist. You can write down 'protections' on a piece of paper but without that Will they become worse than useless, providing a cover from which Statists can claim 'legitimacy' whilst actually extending the plunder, power and control.
The Supreme Court has identified some categories of unprotected and less protected speech where the government has more latitude to regulate than usual under the First Amendment.
Incitement of illegal activity – advocates illegal acts or the overthrow of the government (Schenck v. United States)
Fighting words – speech that is directed at another and likely to provoke a violent response (Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire)
Obscenity – material which deals with sex in a manner appealing to the indecent interest (Miller v. California)
Commercial speech – expression related solely to the economic interests of the speaker and its audience. (Central Hudson. v. Public Service Commission)
Defamatory speech –speech that is injures reputation (New York Times Co. v. Sullivan)
Symbolic speech – conduct that communicates through symbols (such as flag burning) rather than words (United States v. O’Brien)
The idea of free speech is vastly more important than any of these trivial justifications. The World we live in today is a living testimony to how successfully 'Supreme Court' cases like the ones above have undermined freedom and everything that flows from it (consider how much has been spent on post 9/11 wars for example). Anyone who wants to confront reality on 9/11, or many other political matters, is going to have to confront the inner Statist that tells them that violent coercion is a normal and natural part of life. That has emotional and psychological consequences that few have been prepared for.
How it's supposed to be - if you are 'normal'
Loneliness and isolation are not rewards. Coming to understand the World for what it really is, warts and all, and thinking about ways to improve it are, but in a rather different way. Not so much comfort and pleasure as a kind of satisfaction. That may or may not be worthwhile to you, but I often have to remind myself that nothing worthwhile comes easily ...
