Why Che Guevara Is Admired on College Campuses

Ayaan Hirsi Ali on the Enlightenment

Ayaan Hirsi Ali on the escape from reigious totalitarianism for Europeans:

Four hundred years ago, the Enlightenment cut European culture from its roots of magic, kingship, social hierarchy, and the domination of priests, and regrafted it onto a great strong trunk that supported the equality of each individual, and his right to free opinions and self-rule.

De Gaulle on France’s National Vice

General Charles de Gaulle on France's national vice:
Envy is our national vice, it is the worst of the Deadly Sins, it is what projected the angels into Hell because they wanted to be the equal of God. It is worse than pride because pride has a certain nobility, while envy is the feeling of the defeated and rancorous, it is the crime of Cain against Abel, of him who has failed in everything and kills his neighbour because he is successful, it is the anger of losers. If the French did not have this fault, one could forgive them for many things.
In other words, "Liberté, égalité, fraternité" -- sans liberty.

Network communication under censorship — without the Internet

"How do you communicate when the government censors the internet?" asks Forbes Contributor John Koetsier in Hong Kong Protestors Using Mesh Messaging App China Can't Block: Usage Up 3685%. According to Koestsier,

 "With a peer-to-peer mesh broadcasting network that doesn't use the internet. That's exactly what Hong Kong pro-democracy protesters are doing now, thanks to San Francisco startup Bridgefy's Bluetooth-based messaging app. The protesters can communicate with each other — and the public — using no persistent managed network."

Government regulates; freedom innovates.
