Lessons From September 11th, 2001

by Keith Knight | Sep 12, 2024 | Blog, Don't Tread on Anyone

https://youtu.be/6tMWiBqfZWU Lessons From 9/11: Do not let tragedies put you in a state of mind which allows you to be manipulated into becoming the very thing you claim to oppose. Warfare is based on lies. Politicians engage in 'threat inflation' (and explicit lies), a necessary tactic to get people to put their lives on the line unnecessarily. 2. Doing nothing is better than doing something bad and counterproductive. 3. Civilians frequently have to bear the cost of decisions made by politicians (blowback), when a few politicians and contractors and soldiers benefit at the expense of their...

The Ultimate Case Against the Churchill Cult

by Keith Knight | Sep 7, 2024 | Don't Tread on Anyone, Featured Articles, Foreign Policy, History, Libertarianism

According to the National WWII Museum, the Second World War resulted in 45,000,000 civilian deaths, 15,000,000 combat deaths, and 25,000,000 soldiers permanently wounded. This is what many academics and media influencers refer to as "The Good War." Just as we cannot truly understand a court case hearing only the defense, we must also hear the prosecution in order to come to the most accurate conclusion on who is guilty, who is innocent, and how such a tragedy can be avoided in the future. I want to make the case that the Second World War is in fact a tale of good vs. evil. In short, evil...

The Ultimate Case Against Winston Churchill – Full Speech by Keith Knight

by Keith Knight | Sep 4, 2024 | Don't Tread on Anyone

https://youtu.be/CibECZZB9YU Among the people many, in their desire to emerge from an almost unbearable tension, went so far as to say out loud that they wished the enemy would risk the attack. Foremost among them, Mr. Churchill found the waiting hard to bear. I can still see him at Chequers, one August day, raising his fists towards the sky as he cried, “So they won’t come!” “Are you in such a hurry,” I said to him, “to see your towns smashed to bits?” “You see,” he replied, “the bombing of Oxford, Coventry, Canterbury, will cause such a wave of indignation in the United States that they’ll...

Against Winston Churchill w/ Keith Knight and Dave Smith

by Keith Knight | Sep 3, 2024 | Don't Tread on Anyone

https://youtu.be/6HkQqPpKNWw The human tragedy reaches its climax in the fact that after all the exertions and sacrifices of hundreds of millions of people and the victories of the Righteous Cause we have still not found Peace or Security, and that we lie in the grip of even worse perils than those we have surmounted. – Winston Churchill, The Gathering Storm Watch on BitChute Watch on Odysee

The COVID Narrative Exposed on C-SPAN

by Keith Knight | Sep 2, 2024 | Blog

Domestic Imperialists used the coercive apparatus of the state to stop hundreds of millions of people from enjoying their lives for years. Surely, we should see a great utilitarian benefit from these COVID lockdown policies and mask mandates. Why was it, that states like Florida and California, which had drastically different policies, had no discernible difference in COVID deaths*? This would have been a great opportunity for Progressives to advocate the Keto and Carnivore diet, considering obesity was clearly correlated with COVID deaths, but such a policy would not have justified massive...
