ABOUT THIS CONVERSATION: In this powerful conversation with CJ Hopkins, I reflect on how he has become the very victim of the authoritarian overreach he’s been warning humanity about for years. For absolutely no good reason, CJ has been dragged through the German court system, an obvious attempt to silence him and deny him his right to free speech.We talk briefly about his trial, but what’s so striking is how close our stories really are. CJ has been hauled through the courts, and I’ve had my career stripped away, both simply for daring to speak out against the system during the Covid era. We are both dissidents, we are both paying the price for exercising what should be a basic human right, the right to speak freely.I highlight that freedom of speech isn’t just "under threat" anymore, it’s already gone. If you challenge authority or question the prevailing narratives, you’ll be censored, punished, ridiculed, lose financially, have career and business opportunities denied or worse. And it’s not just the authorities cracking down, people are now willingly self-censoring, terrified of what speaking their mind could cost them.In fact, I have recently organised a retreat for the last weekend of June for healing, wellness, and real connection, bringing together like-minded souls. But I was shocked to find that when I reached out to various practitioners, even people who shared my views in private, were too fearful to work with me publicly. They admitted they agreed with everything I stand for, but were afraid that simply being associated with me could damage their businesses. And for that reason they refused. I have now got a wonderful team of people who ARE on the same page and are NOT afraid to be associated with me. And thats exactly what I want, to be surrounded by like minded beautiful people who “get it”.This shows we are not facing a hypothetical risk of authoritarianism, we are already living it. Fear is everywhere, fear of the government, fear of customers, fear of peers, fear of being blacklisted simply for standing with the “wrong” person.This conversation with CJ Hopkins is a raw reminder, if we don’t stand up now, if we keep living in fear and silence, we will lose what little freedom we still have left.I hope you enjoy this episode.See my Substack for more info.Much loveDoc xLinksSubstack Substack - https://substack.com/@cjhopkins Book https://www.skyhorsepublishing.com/9781510783928/fear-and-loathing-in-the-new-normal-reich/ IMPORTANT INFORMATIONAFFILIATE CODESWaterpureI distill all my water for drinking, washing fruit and vegetables, and cooking.
