Will David get his sling and fight the Goliath mob or will he too will succumb to the modern bullies? . . “That violence is not practical. If my fellow men believe that the force of the combined tonnage of their muscles is a practical means to rule me — let them learn the outcome of a contest in which there’s nothing but brute force on one side, and force ruled by a mind, on the other.” Ragnar Danneskjold – from Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. . . See you next time… if David will stand! .

People protesting or simply expressing an opinion not conforming with the government, are censored from the traditional or social media and fined for their respectful protests. Few days ago in Milan, the owners of restaurants protested peacefully against the lock-down. The protester were fined 400 Euros each for illegal gathering. This is just an example but every day the same happens and most of the time does not even make the news. Some people already decided to give up and suicide because they cannot produce anymore and they have no more a way to survive but are just accumulating debts. This situation made me think about what can we do, as individuals, to keep ourselves free and not fall in the darkness of the European past. This week the video is a little longer, sorry, but I felt the need to express my thinking in a proper way […]
