No, I didn't grow up in an era where freedom of speech was censored or labelled with demeaning propaganda.civil rights era, hippy movements all had censorship. going back to WWII the japs were smeared pretty hard, go back and look at any old cartoon Where war criminals were presidential candidates. I am sure there are a few, not being from that time I typically don't know who ran against the presidentWhere violence and racism was applauded when people didn't get their way. look at any time period of a different race moving into America. The reason Dr. King stood out was because he was the first to really peacefully protest in this country, plenty of people before him and his contemporaries used violence.Where my tax dollars were funding radical extremist and totalitarian regimes across the globe. Afghanistan, South Vietnam, China in their revolution, Iraq (vs Iran), pretty much any of the ME/African leaders we have since let die or offed ourselves, Russia (WWI & WWII)Where Christianity wasn't being attacked on a daily basis. depending on how you are defining Christianity it has "been under attack" for a long time. Blue law removal, divorce, abortion have all had(not arguing for any of those to really change)Where the English dictionary wasn't being changed for trannies and homosexuals.all languages change, ****** used to only refer to a cigarette, now people will think I bashing a gay person Where we actually had an identity as a country...we have always been defined by our enemies, which can include ourselves. from the founding until 1800ish anti British, early 1800s anti Spain/Mexico, mid to late 1800s the Civil War and slavery, early 1900s was the depression then WWI, mid 1900s was WWII and imperialism. late 1900s was the Cold War. when have we had our own identity?
