Not as Free as You Think. Wikileaks Destroyed What We Knew About Western Freedom

Western culture has, since its inception, prided itself on the idea that they were free. Enter Julian Assange, enter Wikileaks and the dissolution of that narrative. Wikileaks and Assange, along with their collaborators have lifted the veil of secrecy and stripped away the warm blanket of perceived liberty that kept the west comfortable at night. Even if you can ignore the particulars of what Wikileaks has done to Western culture, the concept of freedom, as it was was once understood, is no longer intact.

Women’s right to vote was resolved on June 4, 1920, when the Nineteenth Amendment was ratified. But as it turns out, some conservatives out there still find the idea appalling, nearly 100 years after the conversation and debate ended. Super-silly Christian David Barton said the women’s right to vote was an affront to the family foundation of America. Whatever that means.
