Subject: Preserve our Free speech
HAte laws are unconstitutional. They defend pedophiles, pederasts etc. The Jews and their minions would destroy America. Geo Washington, Thom Jefferson are rolling in their graves over this.

Subject: A delusional portrayal of a real problem.
The FCC has gone far beyond the functional administration which was originally intended to ensure accessibility to limited communication channels. The FCC has done so much beyond its legitimate authority that a full movie should be possible using only literal cases of government oppression.

But the producers of this movie can't help stacking on their irrational anger over lesser, and in some cases non-existent, issues.

This line is particularly moronic:
"censorship is initiated by rich corporate powers"

When individuals comply with the FCC, they are victims. When corporations comply with the FCC, they are "rich corporations" who "initiate censorship". The producer of this video just can't resist placing "the corporations" on the badguy list, even though they have been fined millions of dollars.

Michael Moore was rejected by one distributor, but accepted by another. Why should any specific corporation have to distribute a movie if they don't want to? What about their freedom? Where is the "censorship?" Is it censorship if you don't get your way the first time you ask for it? Does the narrator think that it would be a crime if Disney chose not to back a pro-Bush movie?

When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.

When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.
